ok
you need an 8mm socket with ratchet
or 8mm spanner

undo the 2 bolts on your headlights 1 at the top 1 and the side near the grill

then unplug your bulbs then plug he bubs into your morrette headlights

place into position and bolt back up

is it just 2 bolts that hold the lights in? is there anything else like the standard lights have the small tap underneath that locks into place?

drill a hole in the inner lamp suitable for an led holder (use your standard side luight holder with an orange bulb in???) place in and connect wires to original indicator wires (mine are done by cuting them, stripping plastic off and using bullet connectors) 2 minuite job.

They wont work, side repeater bulbs are 12w (i think) and the fronts are 21w. They wont light up and the indicators will click fast. You need to buy a resistor for them or use proper front indicators like me
