I just did mine. Pretty easy.
I prefer to solder my connections, so it did take more that 5 minutes, but it didn't take long. I also inserted about 8 inches of black 16 gauge wire so I can make the connections in the middle of the wires and then tuck it all into the factory split loom. The mod is well hidden.

It will be dark soon so I am going to drive around and test them!

Can't wait to replace the damn headlamps. UPS man, please get my Susquehanna MotorSports order here quickly!!

On my 2011 you take the screws on top out.(I think 6) then along the bottom its metal clips. Just pull the grill. Can be a little difficult. And don't forget to unplug the blinker. Good luck!

I have the Recon blacked out Leds in the fenders. Do I need resistors for them if I do this?
