Installing New Headlights (Total Unit)

Help! How do I install new lights? I don't want to just replace the bulbs, I want to replace the whole light assembly!! Any help would be appreciated. Do I have to remove the bumper? These things are a B***h to get out!

just to confirm - YES you have to remove the bumper to get to the headlights. the reason is there's a bracket underneath the headlghts that you have to remove to get them out. it's not hard to do. just a bunch of pins and a few screws in the wheel well.

removal requires special Torx 20 ? screwdriver- the anti theft type
There are several threads on replacement with complete pics-
have a scroll or search- its about a 2 hour job for a first timer
