only way to install it is removing your wheels and taking out the plastic part under the fender.It was pain and the *** but all worth it. But you guys know why one of my passenger side light won't turn of if i turn it back on and off? Why does it seems to work back on when i wait for like 10 seconds? Could something be loose there?

I think the bulb might be bad, does it flicker on and off and first?

I have to literally remove the wheels!? I thought maybe taking the front bumper would do it

Take a picture from far away and with one stock on one side PLEASEEEE

Did you change the FOGS and City lights too?

no it doesn't flicker but when i first initially turn it on it works fine but the moment i turn it off and back on quickly left one doesn't seem to work. I gotta wait like a few seconds and it works again. Its easier for you to reach in w/o the wheel. Removing the front bumper would be more of a hassle in my opinion thats why just went thru the wheel and plus i had access to a lift.

I already installed both in. As far as the city lights i used PIAA Super White LED Type 168. Seems to look nice. Fogs are still stock don't even use dem

I had HID's in my Pontiac G6. I did what you did turn it on and off quickly. A few months later the bulb is completely blown.
