Yes.

Each headlight unit is held to the slam panel by 4 bolts (10mm spanner/socket). If you ease it forwards, you can then access the wiring connector at the rear and remove the headlamp asm.

You may as well take both units out and give the lenses a good polish, it makes for better job while you have easy access..

If you have headlight washers, be very careful when removing the bumper.

The wiring loom will reach to allow the bumper to be placed on the ground, but the h/l washer hose won't and you will snap the outlet of the pump - which necessitates a new pump
