New LED's Won't Fit!
Mine arrived today. Cannot get them to fit on my '14 C2S. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Old ones pop out but new ones won't snap in. Anybody else have trouble?

The clips are a little different. I hooked the back end first and then pushed towards the rear of the car, which gave enough clearance for the front tab to slip in. It's a little counter intuitive, you naturally put the front end first, but that's not how I got them in.

An old thread but I just installed mine from Suncoast. As others have noted in some other threads, it is not quite as easy as shown on the Suncoast video, as over time, the OEM ones get kinda stuck.
But the advice above is correct. You don't need to remove the headlights. All you do is pull the OEM units towards the rear of the car, then tilt the front corner towards you. Best to do it with bare fingers, but it does require more force than you might think.
The wiring harness on my car was very short as well, with very little slack. But I didn't need any screwdriver to get the plug off the OEM unit. The wiring plug has a kind of rocker tab on it, closest to the wire side and away from where it plugs into the light assembly. Just press it down and it will release the plug. Then just push the plug into the new unit.
Install it in the reverse of removal. Engage the back end first, push towards the rear of the car to compress the spring, and then press the front into place. Once it's flush, push the unit forward to be sure it's engaged and the rear edge flush with the wheel arch.
I like the look! Wish I had done it sooner.
