You got a dremel?? It's not that hard trust me. After I did the cefiro swap e36's should be a Piece of cake. My first time using a dremel and my first time doin a mod on my car was that. I heard with the e36 swap you only cut a few shards of metal. I wish the cefiro lights were that easy. Don't be scared of a job like this it seems long but after the first light it'll take you like 20 minutes to do. My first headlight took me 6 hours of cutting and measuring. My second light took me 35 minutes of wreckless cutting. Don't be afraid on something like this. There's gonna be a time when you have no knowlege of what to do but taking it to a mechanic is as good as buying a new car.

Take your headlights off get some chalk measure the back of the sheet metal then dremel it out. it'll take about 1 hour if you know how to use your dremel for each headlight for a good fitment and you get to use the OEM headlight bracket. I had to make my own "bracket" Choose a nice warm day and start at 9 am. You'll be finished by 12 with this conversion. Yu even have a writeup I had nothin but a person saying they wish they had a plasma cutter. You will run into much more difficult projects in the future. This is easy.

Dude, trust me. A ballpeen hammer, a dremel tool, and a cordless drill, and instll is complete. If you think this is beyond your limits, STOP SCREWING AROUND WITH YOUR CAR! Install is EASY, creating a wiring harness for maximum voltage and proper function is twice as hard.
