Thank you so much for this video. I watched several videos on how to do this. This is the one that I had success with. Removing the screw in the wheel well and popping off the bumper on the side you're working on was the key to getting the headlight assembly out. No need to take off the bumper completely, just pop that side like Da Truth says. You do have to remove the air intake and the plugs holding the top of the bumper on, but that's easy. Overall it's still a pain (and I want to ask the person that designed it this way, why?) but it only took me thirty minutes to do this. Next time will probably be less as I learned a few things when I did it. Bulb was $25 for a pack of two. Last time I had this done at a mechanic it was $150.00 due to labor. Don't be afraid to try this yourself. It's well worth the effort.

Good stuff. Helped a lot. I remembered there being a certain technique to doing this but couldn't fully recall it.
What a pain in the ass this is...
Great video
Thanks
