i have stock headlights as of now, and they are not all that bright. i went to autozone, and bought some silverstars but they dont fit. are these something most autopart stores should carry? also is there an easier way to remove and replace these lights. the housing is a pain in the a$$. most cars i have had are just twist and pull.

p.s. i wanna stay street legal.

thanks for your help...

that bar is in a clip, the drivers side has a bit more room to see so try to look over there, then there are slots for the 3 tabbs, if you still cant see try removing the headlight to get a better look, realy not too hard lol
