It is pretty straight forward, just disconnect the wiring from the bulb and remove the retainer ring. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes

Gotcha, here is how to change out the headlight lens. You will need to remove the upper plastic above the lenses. Here are the fasteners you need to remove. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes

Use a 14 mm quarter-drive, deep well socket to release the headlamp assembly retaining clip. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.
