Do anybody know how to change the headlight bulbs? I tried to take the back off but it appears that only made enough room back there for baby hands to get that back off. There is also a cross bar there in the way that appears to be attached to the radiator and a few other things. I really dont want to take out all that just to change the bulbs. If anyone know how to change to bulbs please advise.
Thanks in advance

3 screws, 1 connector, remove the headlight assembly. Swap the bulb and put it all back together. Did it to the wife's car today, took maybe 10 minutes.

Three bolts on each side. I have to loosen my sidemarkers as well to be able to get the headlight totally out. Really easy.

Once you get the headlight assemblies out you can modify the attaching tabs so next time you won't have to remove the bolts, just loosen them.

change bulbs out last night with 7000k look bulbs. The swap was pretty easy thanks to all you guys. Bandit, it was easier to just loosen the grill versus the side markers, alot easier to get to. But thanks again everybody. On to the next project.
