very easy...its a beige plastic peice that sticks out from the back of the headlight assembly near the top, just twist that and the whole thing pops out, then you just swap out the bulbs.

Trust me the cool whites are blue enough. It isn't really white at all, when you are driving and are stopped behind a car, you can clearly tell the difference in color between your hid's and the parking lights. But it's up to you, do whatever makes you happy .

I bought the WLED-WHP and I'm not totally satisfied with them. They don't really fill the headlights very well. I can take some pictures and show you guys the difference.

I'm thinking about buying either a 5 or 6 LED Bulb. Although, I'm not sure which one is better ...

If you want fill, you'll need to get one of the bulbs that has LEDs around the side. The 5 LED (WLED-x5 LED) will fill out the reflector more but won't be as strong from the front.

I have the WLED-WHP in my parking lights and I think they fill fine. I'm more interested in how well they throw, and these are very bright and visible to other traffic.
