Can you share how to take the once piece cover off from the back of the headlight unit?

Where did you order your 6000k from?

Do I need to press them really hard? I tried and afraid that I might break them. Do you have any picture of where the 4 clips located? Just need to make sure I can take the cover off before I buy the 6000k.

I bought the 6000k weeks ago but made the mistake for D2S.

So are the new OSRAMs brighter or just "bluer" light in intensity?

6,000k does not make the light brighter. Just blueish light.
You will lose the brightness if you have osram 6,000k.
However, it looks cool tho.

They are not true 6000K, otherwise I wouldn't have purchased them. They are 5400K which isn't too far(compared to 6000K) from factory 4300K. You may lose some, but not much.

See Danny's explaination above, you should be okay, as they're actually 5400K.
