Default Question about pulling fender off

Hi all, I got my replacement fender today. And I think I'm going to try to swap it in tonight. I have a pretty good idea as to what needs to come out but I'm not sure of a couple of things.

1. Does the headlight need to come out?
2. How exactly does the rocker panel come off?

I saw how the rocker panel has these "rivets" holding it into place; are those removable or will I need to replace them?

Thanks

Headlamp does not need to come out. Do not take rocker all the way off. Those are plastic rivets that can be reused- just pull the first couple out to get to the lower fender bolts-fender sits on a slot in drivers door jam - remove those bolts- some bolts in front are behind inner fender liner- and of course bolts across top- piece of cake-you'll have no problem. Good luck!
