Well from what I can gather, you have two wires leading into a plastic connector that is plugged into the back of the headlight housing. I've looked on various forums and some have pulled the wires but it seems risky to me. Did he use pliers or just bare hands?

It's a bleedin' nightmare......take it to the dealers, apparently they have to change them for free.
When I installed my Xenon's I put the LED sidelights while they were off the car.

Well I was contemplating that but I thought you might have to pay for labour. I'll have another good go at it tomorrow, and if it doesn't work I'll take it to the dealership on Friday. :happy2:

Yep, Bit Ten, 5 channel amp, front & rear Hertz, 10" JBL in the enclosure. I want to put my amp under the seat, like yours but I need to find somewhere for the Bit Ten, I'm thinking maybe behind the glovebox or in the dash somewhere.
I've been collecting parts for months, thinking of every detail and every different way of setting it up. Quite frankly I'm sick of thinking about it and can't wait to install it next week.

Does a 5 channel fit under the seat? I got sick of collecting everything too. I think i had some time off work so needed need to rush it

Well, not normally I wouldn't imagine but I picked up one of them funky Digital Alpine's that's about the same size as yours.
The problem I have now, is that it's so powerful, I've had trouble finding speakers that can take it.
