Pasenger side headlight outer.
It looks like this assy needs to be pulled off from outside the grille.
I see the top screws holding the black plastic 'guard'?
. Looks like this has to come off to access the bolts that hold the assy.
All i can figure here is the entire grill needs to come off to ascess the headlight assembly.
Correct?
Anyone have a page from a body manual so I can see how it comes apart?

Yes, the grill has to come out. Considering the age of the plastic grill, it might be easier to replace it as they tend to break during removal. They are held in by the mounting tabs and they (the tabs) need to be moved to release the grill.
