Go get out your owners manual, it's in there on pages 368 to 371. At least those are the pages in my 04 manual. It even has drawings showing how to do it.

HTH.

okay rock,

first things first... it is kind of a B&^%$ to change them. it's not hard but it just takes some time. once you remove all of the screws holding the headlight assembly on you will still have to "POP" the headlight assembly from the fender. it will literally "POP" out of the fender. just give it a good yank and it will pop loose from the fender. after that it is just removing the old bulbs and replacing them with the new ones. install all of the screws and you're done

Just a reminder make sure the bulbs are grease free. These bulbs burn hot and even fingerprint oil can cause them to burn out quickly. I use rubbing alcohol to make sure all the oils from handling them is cleaned off.

Rocky,
What brand are those 9007ST bulbs? If you installed them by now, do they lightup the road more than the stock or are they about the same?

9007ST is the Sylvania SilverStars. I have a set and it does help some, but I would like better lighting. The truck really needs seperate high and low beam bulbs or HID.
