Drivers side headlight is out. Owners manual says I have to pull the whole headlight assembly out in order to replace this lamp. Very tight area, I cannot tell which bolts need to be undone to remove the headlamp assembly.

I am reasonably good at doing car repair work, but this one's got me stumped.

Any advice or tips appreciated.

There is two bolts and one nut that you will have to remove. You have to use a really good flashlight to do it. You have to have a good handle on the parts as well as they can fall into the bottom cover of the air dam and can be lost forever. The headlight moves out about 1/2 to an inch. Headlight removal requires the removal of the bumper and/or the fender. Took a few hours.
