300e HEADLIGHTS COMING
hey guys my euro headlights i ordered from Katmac are arriving tomorrow (Monday). Im not experienced at all with my car or the headlights. My 300e is a 1987 and i was wondering if anyone out there could post some clear details (step by step) on how i can install these headlights properly.

Katmac kit comes with everything you need.
Anyways, the install is really straight forward.
There are five bolts total that hold the headlights in place on each side and one plastic screw at the top of each headlight to hold it in.
I believe it's a 10mm size bolt, I'm not sure since it's been awhile. You might want to get some needle pliers or a really small wrench to remove the bolt on the side of the headlights by the radiator. You'll also need to remove the corner lights for the install since it's hiding three bolts you need to remove.
I would write a detail tutorial but I just got home from a 12 hour shift and I'm tired.
