Relatively easy install depending on which engine you have. I've done it a couple ways with a 6.2. Did it twice because I tried a set of Sylvania halogens first. Wasn't happy with that result.
Removed the whole grille the first time. Removed just the filler neck on the washer tank to access the driver side the second time. Second time was obviously easier and faster. Passenger side wasn't much of a problem without removing anything. Maybe a diesel owner could check in and let you know how they go as I know they have 2 batteries.
They do seem to require some effort to twist and pull out. Make sure you have the LED chips oriented to the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions for correct beam placement. Make sure that the factory seals come off and aren't stuck to the headlight housing. You're not getting a new bulb in there with 2 seals.

Thanks, I have the 6.2
