Default Any instruction on how to take out the headlight?

I need to replace the one on the passenger side because it's accumulating more and more water. Was just going to buy a used one off of Ebay, but couldn't find anything on how to take out the headlight.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

You have to completely remove the bumper cover to properly remove the headlight without breaking any clips. Remove all garnish covers from up top, all the bolts from the bottom, and be sure to remove the 10mm from each corner of the bumper attached to the fender. Once all the bolts & clips are removed carefully pry out each side of the bumper cover then place the bumper on the floor in front of the car so you don't have to unplug all the electronics like park assist & headlamp washers. The headlights are secured by 2 bolts up top and if I recall correct 1 on the side. The harness is a rolling clip mechanism take your time to understand how it is removed and don't break it. It's very easy to put on and take off once you understand how. Good luck.
