Default Someone must know?

Hi, I am new to this forum.. And subarus infact.
I've just bought a 2001 bugeye but I'm not too fond on the lights lol, I was just wondering if changing them is a straight forward swap or a pain in the **** to do?.
Cheers dale.

I assume you mean the headlights, depends what your replacing them with, morrete's have quite complicated wiring (for me any way) but others may be a straight swap

Sorry for not being very specific ,,
It's the front lights, they look built in. They look like three spotlights built in a housing the same colour as the car, I don't really mind what I change them for I just don't really like the ones in now.
So I was wondering if I could change them and if so what should I be looking for?:/
Any help please?. Cheers.

Just delete the http before you paste, anyway I'm not a fan of those either they look like a cheap version of morrete's, what you after replacing then with? Easy job to take them out, grill off and 4 bolts
