How do the headlights on this car come out? I want to change the LH headlight and it seems you need to remove the wing...I can't believe that..........

Got to take the front bumper cover off. It's not really that hard and should be off in about 30 minutes of removing screws.
Is not hard to do...is a bit of a tight fit though. In front of the battery cover is a plastic cover that covers the bulb. remove the cover by movig the metal clip over. Inside is another metal clip, and each of the arms of the clip have to be removed serprately by pushing forward slightly and then towards the other arm. remove wiring and then remove the bulb. FYI, do not tough the bulb glass, as the oil from your fingers will reduce the life of the bulb. installation is the reverse of removal. If you have trouble getting the cover back on, you may have to loosen the shield around the battery to get enough room. Hope this helps:)
Thanks, guys. Bolstered by your input, I tried again. I was able to get the bulb changed without loosening the battery shield or removing any unrelated parts. For folks who find this thread in the future, here's my notes on how this worked:
only to replace the whole lamp, correct? You can still do the bulb w/o removing the bumper cover right?
Correct, my reply was based on his question. Headlight & headlight bulb are
2 different things.
Thanks to you all, I'll take the bumper off then !
