For those of you who've changed your halogens...

how easy/difficult is the procedure? in particular gaining access to the DRL/high beam bulbs. the manual makes it sound too easy simply removing the radiator reserve tank and the connector is right there. but it also had the warning about a charge still remaining in the circuits even after the car is turned off. how long should i wait? any tips would be greatly appreciated!!!

The passenger's side is a piece of cake. The driver's side is a PITA. Regardless, less than 10 minutes.

as long as you don't stick your finger inside the horness then you'll be fine. but if it does shock you, a little shock won't hurt you
