Default S80 Headlight replacement...

I have a broken headlight on my 2000 S80. I've got the replacement part but am having issues actually replacing it.

Any suggestions?

I'm pretty sure you need to remove the bumper first.

Is it the actual headlight or just the lens? I guess you have to try to be a little more specific.. I remember when we changed my lens, the bumper had to come off...

It's just the lense so it looks like I need to remove the bumper 1st...

Thanks for the responses.

Ya, bumper has to come off. If you are only doing one side (like I did) you can loosen both sides but there are some pop rivets holding the inner fender splash gaurd in place that will need to be drilled out to get enough access. Obviously you need to remove the turn signal lenses and disconnect the wires. The plastic trim around the bumper just pryes off. PM me if you need any help.
