2003 Chevy S-10 Two Wheel Drive

I have a friend at church that has a headlight out and needs to replace it and is not sure how. I have done this many times to my autos but never a S10. I would like to help him. I think it's about a 2003 but I'm not sure. Is there anything special about replacing a Chevy S10 headlight?

there are two long black plastic clips behind the bucket by the air filter that lift up and release the whole headlamp assembly. once the assembly is tilted forward some, you can then access the bulb to twist and remove it and replace with new. be certain not to touch new bulb surface with bear hands as the oil from hands may cause bulb to fail prematurely .
