Default Headlamp

I messed up my headlamp in a minor accident and I want to swap it out. I was able to order a single GT take off headlamp assembly (thanks to ninosport), but I don't know how to take it out.
I tried looking for a 2005+ repair manual (i have 06), but I didn't have any luck.

I don't want to make any guesses when I'm taking apart my pony.

Anybody know where I can get some reference material?

You will have to remove the bumper basically.

You should be able to loosen one side to do this perhaps.

+1 I saved the file in case I need to pull off the bumper in the future.

Great find.

First remove the rear bumper, crawl in through the trunk, remove the rear seat, remove the drivers seat, remove the steering wheel, remove the engine. you should now be able to see the rear of the headlight. remove it, re-install it, Then re-assemble your car. lol, That's the easy way. Don't ask about the hard way.................
