It's not too hard, as all the other posts say. Just take your time. Put it on ramps, unscrew the 3 philips screws holding the plastic shield on under the car and hold it out of the way. The main nut on the back is a 15mm I believe. I adjusted mine this morning and I can't remember. Then loosen the two nuts on the side to adjust it. once you get one done, mark the beam location on a 2x4 or something so that when you do the other one, you have a reference since it'll be hard to tell with the car on ramps. The stock bulbs are 24 watt (contrary to what the other guys said) and they are plenty bright enough right now. I wouldn't go any bigger than 55 if you change them out. Good luck.
