Default Headlight Removal
Do you need to remove the front bumper on a 2014 is 350 in order to remove a headlight? I have an issue with water/condensation getting into one of the headlights but I’m not sure if the front bumper needs to be removed to take the headlight out.

Yes you have to remove the Front bumper, or at the very least easier with the bumper off.

There's a bulletin for it, but likely you're out of the warranty period by now.
The tab on top the headlight breaks allowing the moisture to get in.
