Projector bulbs soldered into place?
I installed some Jaguar Eyes on my 92 civic and when inspecting the units I noticed that the bulbs seem to be connected to the wires through a soldered connected. How am I supposed to ever change the bulb, if I say, blew a bulb or just wanted the blue-tinted HID-look bulbs?
Is it something hat has to be professionally done? -Chris

They can still be removed. It will just take some force. Solder isn't the strongest thing holding them in. Just becareful not to break anything.

I would definatly recomend de-soldering them over tearing them off.
all you have to do is heat up the metal the solder will melt and you either just pull off the wire or use a de-soldering bubble (or what ever those little squeez bottle suckers are called)
