    I finally replaced my lenses with the Khoalty's the other day. I don't remember anyone mentioned what a pain it is dealing with the headlight washers. I couldn't find any way to avoid removing them. What I ended up doing was to get the entire headlight assembly ready to remove, remove the washer door, remove the washer nozzle, very quickly remove the headlight then replace the nozzle to minimize spillage.

    Am I missing anything obvious here?

    Also the seals I got from Khoalty were about 1.5" too long. There is no way they would fit, I directly compared the new one to my old one and they are definitely longer. I need to contact Khoalty about that. Luckily my original seals looked great so I reused them.

    Here is a before and after. Huge improvement to night driving. Ignore the appearance of my front end. Detailing was the first hobby to get cut after we had a baby last year.

    Wow, your old/original lenses were awful - how many vehicle miles on those?

    The headlight washers are indeed annoying - I was able to pull the lower trim piece/washer assembly out an inch or so, just enough to wiggle the old lenses out and install the new ones.

    Looks great - good work!

    X2, that's exactly how I did mine also. It helps to apply some painters tape on the bumper to keep from scratching it.

    I reused the lenses gaskets with No issues with leaks.

    88k miles. The car was garaged for the first ~60k miles of its life. Same as my old VW, once they start to go they go quick.
