Headlight Assembly Removal

I’m getting ready to remove the headlight assemblies from my 73.
The AIM shows there are five bolts holding the assemblies in place and it looks like, when I remove those bolts the assemblies should drop down and I can remove them through the radiator support and engine compartment.
Am I missing something or will it be that easy?

finish pulling the bumper guts and they go right out the front. are you replacing the bumper with rigid glass? the rubber stuff underneath and metal where license plate mounts will probably not fit under new bumper cover.

Yes, I’m replacing the rubber bumper cover with a solid fiberglass piece.
On my 73 there is no rubber piece under the cover.
Its all solid steel.
