X5 Headlight Removal?

[Aceman1120]

Hi, has anyone done an HID bulb replacement? Do I need to remove the entire headlight to replace the HID Bulb and the Daytime driving light? How do I remove the Headlight assembly...thnx

Not really, i just kinda pulled it out as fas as it would go, (do you have to take the bumper off to take the headlight out?) and i just worked in the tightish space.

After removing 4 screws that hold the light assembly in place, I tried to pull the light assembly out, but it doesn't come out, I fear I may have to remove the bumper I need to change the HID's, The Angel Eyes Light bulb, and the daytime running light bulbs as well! ...any help will be welcomed, thnx
