I've heard the front headlights are a straight swop, however the tailgate lights need rewiring. I don't know if theres an adapter you can buy to change them yet.

Oh that's not too bad!

Might as well have a de tangoing session whilst I'm at it

What about the side repeaters? They just pop out with a bit of fiddling?

Fiddling about with needle nosed pliers isn't worth it haha

Yeah do it!!
its really not that hard with the correct tools- the 2 long plyers are essential, i did it with a screwdriver and normal set of plyers- wouldn't recommend doing it that way haha
even so it only took a couple of hours and that was with literally no clue what i was doing other than the instructions from here... the second light took a fraction of the time!

Arrr... that's the advantage of the pre-facelift. Just a question of changing the bulbs and job done.
