Default Headlight Removal ?

Can anyone tell me how to remove the headlight assembly on a 2005 C6, from the research i have done i found one thread which said the assembly could be removed without taking off the bumper, but the thread was from 2009 and there was no how to write up, and one thread said to remove the fender, any help would be appreciated.

The bumper isn't bad to take off. There are some videos on youtube of how to do it.

Several have found this method to work pretty well:

The bumper doesn't need to be removed, just some bolts need to be removed to get the light out..There are a few write ups showing the procedure....WW
