is it correct that i will have to remove the bumper to replace these lights

Highly unlikely. I cant see the designers setting it up that way. At most maybe remove the lower air dam or plastic facia below. Really depends on the vehicle. I did not, I have a very big winch bumper, the truck has 15" of lift so I have tons of room under it to work.

Yes. Heads up 'though - they come with new buckets too. They need to be used with these lights because the stock ones don't quite line up. (I tried it)> No big deal 'though, it all changes out easy and fast.

Yes you will eventually need to replace bulbs... You can probably order them directly from the manufacturer.

No!!! They replace the headlights of your pickup, remove stock lights and replace with these.

These headlights are actually very easy to install. When removing the old lights, pay attention as to the removal and install the new ones using the same procedures. good luck !

You will need: OEM Bulb connectors (either purchase online or find at wrecking yard, I could not find at parts stores), Switch (either factory or aftermarket) and they should be wired through a relay & fuse to battery so power is not through switch. The openings in the bumper plastics will need to be larger, I used a Dremel & file.

You have to remove the bumper skin and the wheel-well liners, I think. Its been several years. If you search you-tube someone will have a video showing what comes off. I wouldn't say they are "easy" to remove/install but it wasn't rocket science either. I think it took me a couple hours... if you don't include the time I spent messing around with the messed up angle adjustment boss that I received.

The Phase 7 lights are plug and play. You shouldn't need anything else to change them out

original bulbs screw into the new headlights( signal and headlights) you might have to splice the 3 led light on the side and also the halo lights

It's basic stuff xD basically all you gotta do is pop the hood up, unscrew all the screws that's holding the headlights down then unscrew your front bumper just enough so you can pull the bumper back a bit and pull the headlights out. Don't pay the dealership to take them out for you because that's just a really big waste of money. I have had these headlights for a year or so now and I somewhat regret buying them. The halo rings aren't LED so they aren't visible during the daytime and after a while, the plastic on the headlights starts to peel. I've kept my car in top notch condition and yeeah, after about a year, the headlights are starting to wear out. Good luck with the installation if you do decide to get these lights!

Hi Tim,Yes, it's true you have to take whole front end out. I also installed HID's on my car. I paid 120 bucks to get them installed. It's better to go to any good mechanic n get it done. They are very easy installation once you take off the front part n they look killer ... Don't lose the hope keep exploring ... If some one can help you in installing.-Saurav

Just make sure that you have the right part # for your Car, and they work great and give you about 25-30% more light to see with. The Answer to the other part of your question is, NO! you don't need any other part to go with them. All you have to do is take out the old bulbs, and put the new ones in, and that's it, and now you're done.

Had to drop my bumper to put them in and get the old ones out! Also, if you don't run the halos on their own circuit, it will kill all your lights!

NOOOO! Do NOT remove that metal. It will likely damage the bulb and void any warranty. In my truck one of the "shields" points up and the other faces down. This does not affect the light at all. Your headlight housing will direct the light appropriately. Hope this helps.

Hey Garry, I purchsed these and put them on my 2004 passat. They look great and do fit just right. Like most german cars things arnt as easy as they would seem. There are some great videos on youtube that go over each step to replacing the headlights. I did this on my own in my driveway. It took about 3 hrs. The hard thing is that you have to remove the bumper to pull the old out and put the new in. It just takes time. I would recommend looking at some videos on youtube before comitting. But it is possible to do this on your own. Hope that helps. I also sealed them with silcon glue before putting them in to prevent water from getting in.

Yes but it is a bit difficult as the door on the back of the assembly screws on with about 6 screws and it must come off to replace bulbs. Some of the screws may be hard to reach without a special tool and you wont be able to see much inside the assembly for replacement. They all come out the back but it may be easier to pop the bumper off and do it the right way. Or replace the bulbs before installing if you plan on upgrading them.I have a 2004 TDI as well! Good luck!
