They should only charge labor which is about .5 per side i believe. I will take your old headlights if they aren't in too bad of shape color wise, like yellowing of the lenses. Oh yea also your going to have to get them aimed.

i have gotten it down to about 10 minutes per side on for a headlight and side marker light, and another 5 minutes for aiming them. They are super easy.
