Default Headlight assembly

Hi Guys
I finally got a brand new passenger headlight. Restoring the old one with 3M didn't make it look great (tried 3 times). Problem now is how to remove the whole old headlight. I can note 2 screws on top and 2 larger ones on the bottom but how to remove the old unit without having to de-assemble the whole bumper and any other body parts ? Any advise or someone in the State College PA area that is willing to assist me (even at $) ?
Much appreciated and am looking forward to hearing suggestions.
John

You'll need to drop the bumper corner to allow for headlight removal. Be careful not to force it out or you'll end up with unwanted scratches.

It's been awhile, but from what I recall, the inner fender liner needs to be removed or at least unfastened at the fender in order to get at the brace that ties the bumper cover to the fender. The brace is just behind the mrker light. There is a section in the Service manual that describes with diagrams the bumper cover removal. You can download it from the documentation sticky section in the SRT6 tab of the forum. Hope this helps!
