headlights

apologies , wasnt sure if commenting on original post would bump it back up.

Anyway

had to buy replacement headlight housing for 2005 outback as whoever owned it before clearly didn't have any patience changing bulbs and likes superglue to hold bulbs in!

Ive got the grille off , undone all the screw bolts and plastic screws but it looks horribly like the front bumper has to come off too??

i presume its the square bracket type part with the keyhole cutout thats hooked over something at the sidelight side but despite best efforts i cannot get light out 

Please someone tell me there's a way to do it without taking the bumper off....?

ok bumper is off  - pretty easy really but now i still cant get the light out!!!

does the shaped metal bracket below the light have to come off as well?

phone went flat as i was taking pics , will post when back on
