There are plenty of write ups on how to install these. It's pretty easy.

Thanks for the quick tutorial Cash. I tried a search on lense reviews on this site to find out about fitment and durability but didn't come up with anything so I thought I'd ask. I got the chiltse-something book. I'll read into it and google some tutorials when i decide to replace my yellow headlights.

Has anyone been using these lenses for a while and regularly parks their car outdoors? I'd be interested to hear how they hold up.
