Really not much to it:

* Rotate headlights half way. I normally turn the headlight switch to full on followed by switch to off position and back to parking light only position when in desired position. Or, use manual knob to rotate to half way position.
* Now, two screws on the sides of the light bezel is accessible and remove able.
* Remove two T-15 tore head screws on lower edge of the housing. Get ready to catch the housing as these bolts are removed.
* With the housing removed four screws for the stainless steel band trim holding the headlight in headlight bucket can be removed.
* Pull the headlight forward just enough to expose electrical connector to the headlight and disconnect.
* remove headlight.

Installation of new LED headlight is the reverse of above steps.

Refer to Hib's picture and re-wire driving light ground wire (green wire) to counter inoperable driving lights caused by factory wiring where driving light ground is through the high beam ground:
