Can you get me some instructions on how to replace left side/driver headlight assembly? Is removing the bumper cover a must?

Remove the bumper cover, then the plastic rivets and the seal panel. That lets you get to the upper and lower screws that hold the light in place. Then unplug the electrical connector and the housing comes out. Reverse to install. The bumper cover comes off because the light has to come out straight and there is a large part of it under the cover.
