I did not take the headlight out, just loosened it and brought it forward against the bumper headlight washers as far as I could and worked at it from all angles. It can be done without removing the bumper to remove the headlight.

Still can't see pics, but I got it done. Wiggles it enough to give me room to work and take the covers off.
Good stuff. Still can't get the angel eye bulb to unlock tho. Lol. Thanks guys. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The angel eye housings can be difficult. Just add some more force, it will come out. I noticed this morning (still dark)when I left the house the drivers side xenon flickered a few times so I may be headed for a failure. I have a spare D2S bulb so I might try that first. The right side failed about a year ago so after 13 years, I guess it's time...

I posted in this thread several years ago when I replaced my headlamps on a 2005 facelift x5 with headlight washers. It worked. Since then I've had to remove the bumper for other reasons and realized it comes off in 10 minutes. The only issue is supporting it when it's off so it doesn't hang by the hoses. A walmart swimming inflatable circle thing would probably work fine to rest it on. Here is the video I used.

Oh snap. That is very easy, and I'm already missing the 5 below the bumper. That's good to know. Any chance you have - video for the rear bumper too, I need to do a hitch install soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The rear bumper is even easier. 2 large T55 torx bolts and 2 8mm screws in each fender liner. Don't forget to disconnect the PDC harness if you have PDC.
