Pull the bumper and then pull the headlamp assemblies out, swap bulbs, then reverse. I've heard getting to the bulbs is a bit tricky. I don't know of a how-to for removing the bumper though.

Taking a bumper off isn't terribly hard though, just put it up on ramps/stands, then find every bolt, screw, or fastener touching the bumper and then try to remove it.

Hope this helps, follow the order on the table, 1= step 1 etc...
I installed my passenger headlight without taking out the bumper from the top, but the driver side is a PITA to get to without taking out the headlight assemblies.

Sidenote: I'm from the chi too we should meet up sometime.
