Well one of my halos went out and the only way to replace em is a heat gun to open the unit and then some kind of solution to seal up the headlight unit after opening it up because if it isn't properly done it will cause the inside of the lights to fog up.

Hmm that's interesting. I took the headlights out just couple days ago and I could easily pull the bulbs out from the bottom and put them back in with a tweezer. There were two pieces of rubber covering the holes on the bottom of the headlights.

You were able to get the halo bulbs out with just tweezers?! If that was the case I feel like an idiot for trying to get the headlight unit apart. Cause someone on the .com site replace the white halos with blue ones and the only way he was able to do that was heat gun the unit.

Hmm, does your bulbs' wires go into the housing from the bottom? mine goes in from the bottom and there were two rubber pieces that cover the holes. I used a philips screw driver to remove the rubber and u can simply pull the bulb out. I think i have pictures somewhere let me go dig it out.
