Re^2: Headlight Assembley Replacement

I also need help on how to remove the headlight assembly to replace bulbs. Trying to follow along but am confused: are the star-head screws for adjustment only, removal or both? I could easily access and turn the inside star screw by removing the rubber grille weatherstripping. The ones above and below the headlight lens appear to be a different story. Is a long thin star-headed screwdriver the "special" tool the dealer mech was referring to? If I completely turn out all the star screws will the headlight assembly pull off (as simply as it descibes and illustrates in the owners manual. Ha! Ha!)? Has anyone actually had the bulbs changed out by a Pep Boys type outfit and not been gouged?$$$ Please help! Got these great new super white bulbs but I'm still in the dark.

Thanks,
Scott

Do the hex bolts below the parking lights have anything to do with the assembly removal, and am I missing any other screws for removing?
