theres a screw in between the bumper and the headlight I cant get it out i have been trying for about an hour now its getting really annoying.
 
grab -n- yank my friend,, grab -n- yank (easyest way) no one replaces that bolt anyways
 
Go through the middle between the lights. Your going to have to take off the metal piece where the hood locks. I had to squeeze my hand and arm inbetween the bumper and the light and hopefully you can manage to get the wrench in there. Oh yeah, if you value your knuckles or forearms, id just yank it.

that was easy :D and your right I didn't put the bolt back on with the projectors
 
Take the bumper and bumper support off first. It is much easier this way and you wont lose any skin or blood. I can swap out headlights in 45 min doing it this way. Took me over an hour to "try to get one light off" without removing the bumper. Plus you wont mess up your bumper or break anything by prying and pulling.
