my front right headlight is busted ( due to a kangaroo).
I have been told in order to replace the light i need to remove the front spoiler ( cover ) etc
is this easy and can some one give me a simple description of doing it , and what screws etc need to be removed .
Is it a 1 man job ?

You will need to completely remove your front bumper. It can be done with one person but you preferably want 2 guys when it comes time to slide it off, so you dont drop it on the ground and scratch it up. Stick your head under the car and look at how its bolted on. You'll need to find all the screws around the wheel arches, and then I prefer to unbolt the whole brace that holds the bumper to the chassis and slide it forward and off

Once its off you will have easy access to your lights
