^ Headlights aren't too bad to install, just reaching behind trying to remove small nuts with a socket set and unplugging main wire connectors.

Not sure 100% because I do not own a Versa, I own an 01 Altima. But mine also said I needed to remove my bumper which may have made the job a bit easier for removal of headlights, but I was still able to replace the headlights easy enough without removal of the bumper. I guess you'd have to ask another Versa owner whos done this as a DIY.

DO NOT REMOVE THE BUMPER! it can be done with out it. you can use a 10mm open end wrench and reach in from the wheel well (this is a really good place for the trim/panel remover tool) that what i did the passenger side is hard and it will probably pinch your arm a little.

i did it in about an hour. if you look at all the stuff on my car it was all done by me and most of it took less than an hour, but i will say the spoiler install is not for the weak of heart, that should probably be done by a pro
