Hey,
yes it looks easy on the internet, where they remove the front reflector in max 2 minutes. But there is a big problem. In the 2001-2004 versions, especially with reflector washers you can try remove the right reflector (some people say its doable), but removing the left one is impossible without removing the front bumper. I bought a new reflector washer motor and thought it is some easy job for max 2 hours, and now i'm sitting third day and searching in the internet how to remove the front bumper in this version.
You gonna also need a ratchet screwdriver with extension, and a standard 10mm wrench, because 2 screws are very hard to reach.
