That's a lot of work to change a headlight bulb, but you'll be able to change the locking bar too.

Good post PW and a nice gesture.

Had the same problem

I had the same problem - couldn't get the assembly out no matter what I tried.
I was able to access it through the fender well and open the cover door to replace the bulb without ever removing the assembly. Took about an hour.
