Why are you trying to change the headlight? Is it broken?
If you are trying to change the bulb, because it is burned out, that is done from the rear of the housing. You have to exercise a bit of care getting the old bulb out and putting the new one in, but is it not difficult. If you are removing the right-side (from the driver's position) bulb, remove the battery (make sure you have your radio anti-theft code if you have one of those radios). Reach behind the headlight assembly, grasp the bulb holder retaining collar, turn it counterclockwise, then pull out the bulb/holder assembly. To remove the bulb from the holder, simply pull it straight out of the holder. Reverse procedure to lock the holder into place.
Removing the headlight housing is somewhat more involved. There are five bolts that hold it in place.
Easiest is if you remove the ash tray/cup holder first and than push out the radio from the back.
1.Slide out ash tray/ cup holder to max.
2. Depress slides on top (both sides.
3. Remove 2 or 4 screws that hold radio in place.

This is slightly tricky. Start by removing the trim
around the shifter, its friction fitted so it will pop off with gentle force. Then you
can remove the larger piece
of trim that surrounds the shifter and extends up to the cup holders, I found that prying from the cup
holder end seems to work best. Now you will be able to remove the trim that
runs down the side of the center consol
and includes the cup holders
and power plug, you undo the 2 screws near the shifters then pry it off down the
sides and pulls clear from the dash. Only then can you undo the bolts that hold
down the bottom of the
radio frame. From there it becomes aloteasier. Push on the frame where you just pulled the
bolts out of while prying gently at the radio consol. The whole thing will come out the factory
unit comes out easily then you can put your dash adapter (schoche makes a
decent kit) and aftermarket unit in.
With the key in position two, pull the gear selector to the lowest gear.
With a bone too, or a screw driver, carefully pry up on the trim around the gear selector (the side closest to the center console trim, not the aluminum looking plastic directly around the selector).
Underneath there are four clips that hold the aluminum looking trim to the plastic trim. Unclip those and carefully separate it. The clips should be one on each four corners.
If you have the pen holder directly underneath the radio, that can be easily removed by gently prying on it to release it.
Now there should be about a set of 2 (4 total) Torx 25 screws. Remove the two that hold the whole center console together.
Pull the bottom section out towards you about half an inch and pry downward. The top of the assembly should have a slot that goes to the dash to hold the top section in.
Put that assembly off to the side before you disconnect any connectors and put the vehicle in park.
Once in park, take the key out. Most important or else you'll set codes and have to bring it to the dealership to have them erased.
Now disconnect the connectors on the back.
If you have the fiberoptics cables on there...you may need to get "bridges" for them so you can complete the fiberoptic circuit of the MOST system.
Disassembly of the stereo assembly should be pretty straight forward after that. A few clips for the trim piece around the assembly, a few Torx screw removals and the stereo should pop right out.
