How hard were the Silverstars to install? I heard something that you have to take the wheel off in order to reach the area. Is this true? Could you give me the directions on how to install them?

I just finished putting in the SilverStars and they look and work great. They are very difficult to install as the standard PT bulb is a 9006XS and the SilverStars are a 9006ST. The difference is that the ST has a 90 degree bend at the base of the bulb so the connector is VERY tight against the rubber seal inside the headlight housing, my fingers are sore from trying to turn it in.
Taking off the wheel would have been a bit easier, but not much. You can do what rustcan suggested and turn the wheels side to side to gain access to the headlight bulb panel cover in the front wheel well.
I'll try to get some pictures of the difference between the stockers and the SilverStars. I still have the fog lights as stock so you can really tell the difference. The fog lights are an easier swap as they use the 9006ST bulb stock.
