I can say on my truck it was easy. Remove the chrome trim, remove the grille, drill a few holes, mount bracket, mount lights, replace grille, replace trim. You can change the bulbs on mine without removing the grille, but I did it anyways, just made it simpler.

If you can see on my picture there are also two lights in the bumper, those were even easier, take a drill from the bottom of the truck, drill four holes, mount lights. End of story.

The difference is great, but running 280W at idle isn't going over so well with my electrical system, especially with the radio on.
