led front signal light/switchback videos

Hello all. I've been searching around the net and can't find a good video on how to install switchbacks for our front signal lights. Does anyone know if there's a link on how its done? I'm not the most mechanically inclined person to say the least and I'd like to know the difficulty of doing this myself. I'm hoping the bumper doesn't have to come off, but if it does, then it does. Also, does installing switchbacks automatically turn your signal lights (white mode) on at the same time as the DRLs? That's the end result I am looking for with these. Basically to have the front signal lights on the whole time. Thank you all in advance for your suggestions and insight.

Thanks for the link.

Once installed, does it automatically turn on with the DRL's or is there extra modification that needs to be done?

The only thing switchback does is change the "dim" (drl) yellow to white, where the normal bulb would be "dim" yellow.
