Open the hood. Looking down from above
into the engine bay, locate the corner light
retaining clip. Carefully use a long screwdriv-
er to release the retaining clip. While maintaining SLIGHT pressure to the retaining clip
(push clip towards the outboard side of car)
pull the corner light towards the front of the
car. Do NOT pull too hard, you do not want
to yank out the bulb socket.
Unclip the turn signal socket to release the
bulb from turn signal.

Use an 8 mm socket to remove the 3 bolts
holding the headlight to the radiator support
bar. Once removed, move on to the remaining two bolts on the bottom of the headlight.
3
With the turn signal removed, you should eas-
ily be able to see a bolt on the bottom of the
headlight. Unbolt this one, and move on to
the last remaining bolt.
4
Remove the radiator shroud and locate the
bolt on the bottom left hand corner of the
headlight. Once this is removed, your headlight will easily separate from the vehicle.
5
Unplug your stock 9006 low beam power supply.

Then unplug your stock 9005 high beam
power supply.
7
Now it is time to install your new headlight.
On the bottom of the headlight we provide a
clearly marked label with the proper pin
orientation for your plug and play harness.
8
Connect the corresponding plug and play
wires to the plug and play prongs located on
the back of the headlight.
Pictured is wiring properly installed.

Once your wires are snug, push the silicone
grommet over the plug and play prongs, sealing it from the elements.
11
Plug your stock 9005 high beam connector
(usually a grey 9005 connector, brown
ground wire, white power wire) into the plug
and play harness (black 9005 plug, brown
ground wire, white power wire). This will allow
your high beams to function properly.
12
You will connect the grey wire from the plug
and play adapter to the parking light wire.
Wire up the angel eyes to the parking light
wire. On one side of the car the wire you are
looking for is grey/purple and the other side
will be grey/yellow.

Pictured is the grey wire from your plug and
play spliced into your parking light. You can
use T taps, butt connectors, solder, or any
other method you feel comfortable with to
splice the two wires together.
14
Next plug the vehicle’s stock 9006 low beam
connector (usually a grey plug, brown/yellow
wires) into the HID ballast.
15
Plug in corresponding AMP connectors from
HID bulb (coming out of your low beam
cover) to the HID ballast.
16
Now that all the wiring is done we can install
the headlight. Start by putting in the low
beam side of the headlight first. You will find
that it is a tight fit, but this is the easiest way
to get the headlight in without force.

Once the low beam side of the headlight
slides in, push in the high beam side of the
headlight.
Plug turn signal socket/bulb back into turn
signal.

With the headlight loose and room to play,
you will be able to install your lights without
breaking the headlight sliders, corner light
retaining clip or guide pin.
DDM Tip: Heat slider rails with hair dryer or
heat gun to lower the chances or cracking or
breaking the guide rails.

Align the headlight properly inline with your
nose panel. Once the headlight is situated
and fitted properly, reinstall the 8 mm bolts to
secure headlight into vehicle. You will need
to adjust the headlights for the proper beam
pattern. You may need to make gross adjustments by adjusting the headlight mounting
screws and then fine tuning with the aiming
adjusters on the back of the headlight.
