I know I keed to remove the front bumper and lip and I was wondering if anyone has an how to or complete instructions like the one that you guys gave me to remove the interior pieces.

Thanks again for the support,

i just installed my headlights. all by pure knowledge. and well.. if you plan to do it with no instructs, be care when you take the bumper off.... because there are some clips about int he dead center that hold the bumper on. youve gotto unclip them before you pull.

Do you really have to remove the front bumper to replace the headlights?

A co-worker backed into my parked MSP recently, damaging the headlight and bumper. I found some aftermarket headlights that look good and are actually cheaper than stock replacements. I was planning on replacing the headlights myself to save on labor costs, but I didn't know I would have to take the bumper off.
Is this a difficult job?
I've been searching around for a how-to, but no luck.
 
taking off the BUMPER COVER is not hard at all. a few screws in the wheel wells and a few more under side of the bumper and there you have it.
