Headlight replacement?
Okay, here is a dumb question. When removing the headlight bezel to replace the headlight, is ther an easy way to get to the four bezel bolts. Looks to me like only two of the four are east to get to. Any shortcuts?

If I recall correctly,I removed the 2 upper most bezel screws and bend the bezel down to get the light out.Then I bent it back up and tighten it back down.
You can take the headlight covers off with torx tools,to gain access to the lower bezel screws,but I never did it that way.The way to do that is to manually rotate the lights to gain access to the torx screws holding the cover on,if simply turning the lights on and they flip open doesnt give you clearance.
