Default replacing headlight?

Is there a site that has detailed instructions on how to replace headlights on 2G lexus gs300? I've searched both these forums and google and found this:

http://www.ehow.com/how_6031034_remo...xus-gs300.html

Seems like a lot of work

My driver side headlight burnt out and I am most likely going to be installing a HID conversion kit so I will need access to both sides, please help me out, thanks in advance.

Thank you, I figured how to change it on the passengers side, drivers side has what I believe is wind washer fluid tank blocking it..

I did check the link for that URL, I think thats for stock HID cause I couldn't find the cap I needed to twist off on the first pic.

Anyway, thank you for your responses!
