### Step-by-Step Instructions for Installing Alpharex Nova Headlights on Your Sprinter Van

#### Step 1: Prepare for Headlight Adjustment

- Before starting the installation, park your **Sprinter Van** facing a wall.
- Turn on your current headlights and use tape to mark the position of the top beam of light on the wall.
- Also, mark the spot where your **Sprinter Van's** tires are on the ground to ensure you can return to the same position when adjusting the new headlights.

#### Step 2: Remove the Fender Liner

- Start by removing the fender liner on your **Sprinter Van**.
- Locate and remove any push rivets or fasteners holding the liner in place.
- Once removed, pull the bumper slightly away from the fender. Note that you do not need to fully remove the bumper for this headlight installation.

#### Step 3: Remove the Front Grille

- Next, remove the front grille of your **Sprinter Van**.
- There are three Torx screws on the grille that need to be removed. After removing these screws, gently unsnap the grille from the vehicle.

#### Step 4: Disconnect the Headlights

- Disconnect the stock halogen headlights by unplugging the headlight connector at the back of the unit.
- Push down on the latch and pull back on the connector to disconnect it.

#### Step 5: Remove the Stock Headlights

- To remove the stock headlights from your **Sprinter Van**, locate and remove four Torx screws: two at the top and two at the bottom of the headlight.
- Once these screws are removed, carefully pull out the headlight unit.

#### Step 6: Install the Alpharex Nova Headlights

- Now, it's time to install the Alpharex Nova headlights in your **Sprinter Van**.
- Position the new headlight in place and secure it using the four Torx screws: two at the top and two at the bottom.
- Ensure the headlight is seated properly before fully tightening the screws.

#### Step 7: Connect the New Headlights

- Plug in the new Alpharex Nova headlights by connecting the headlight pin to the connector at the back.
- Ensure the connector is fully latched to avoid any electrical issues.

#### Step 8: Reinstall the Grille and Fender Liner

- Reattach the front grille by snapping it back into place and securing it with the three Torx screws.
- Reinstall the fender liner, ensuring it fits snugly into place, and reattach the push rivets or fasteners.

#### Step 9: Test the New Headlights

- Once the Alpharex Nova headlights are installed, turn on your **Sprinter Van's** lights to check for proper function.
- Compare the brightness and beam pattern of the new headlights to ensure they are functioning as expected.

#### Step 10: Adjust Headlight Aim

- To adjust the aim of the new headlights, return your **Sprinter Van** to the position marked earlier.
- Use the adjustment screws on the headlight units to align the beams to match the markings on the wall.
- Ensure that the light beam is not too high, so it doesn't blind oncoming traffic.
