Exclamation 2007 S80 low beam/dipped beam replacement

Well...I thought this was going to be easy but it is nothing like the owners manual says. The outside bulb which is the low beam/dipped beam bulb on both sides has what I think is a heat sink on it so I can not access the bulb there. Suggestions/ideas?

Thank you.

check youtube for vids. On some models the headlamp housing is held in by clips or pins allowing the whole assembly to slide out forward from the grill to access the bulbs

thanks for the help mt6127. I finally figured it out....taking it to the dealership. Its actually has the damn bi-xenon bulbs and the reason I couldnt find access to remove the burnt out bulb is because its setting behind a ballast. The ballast has to be removed and a few other things to get more access down there. I wager its going to cost 300 to 500 per headlight to get it done.

I am not really mechanically included to attempt to do it, sadly.
