if i remember right you can see the white bracket when you take the grill off, once you start its quite easy..
just one thing make sure you put some tape on the bumper in front of the headlight as when it comes loose its very easy to slip and scratch it
which i did of course

IIRC when I removed mine to change the sidelights, I used a small socket set to undo it behind the bumper....if you know what I mean

you remove the 2 black bumper clips then it will flex enough to get the headlight out, only hard bit if never done before is how hard you have to pull the light to get it out the clip in the wing, if never done before you think something is going to break
