I would like to know how to replace the driver side headlight assembly. Is it easy, challenging , or difficult? I know the angle of the light has to be set but I've never tackled this type of repair. What should I look out for if anything? Thanks, mike

Mike:
The assembly is bolted to the body. It's not that hard to replace other than you may find some of the bolts have limited access. Open the hood and take a look. You may have to move a few things to get full access, but it's not hard.
