Link to 2005 Headlight Upgrade?

Does anyone have a link to the procedure for upgrading headlights to the 2005 and up type? Specifically, I'm looking for details on cutting the header panel and attaching the lights. I've seen the link for the whole upgrade, including new header panel and bumper, but that's not what I'm needing.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

It's a pretty straight forward job but if you have any questions feel free to ask.

I just wanted to be sure I didn't get over zealous with the cutting and trim away too much material, like a mounting tab location.

Just be careful at the top. You need to cut under the "overhang" part where the 2 mounting holes are.

Cool. I'll be cautious and not cut that part away. Thanks again.
