REAL quick Headlight question
If I could get to my car, I could figure it out, but I can't right now, so I'm asking you guys. 
One of my headlights is out. I don't have to take the whole bumper off to replace the bulb, do I?
I know we have to take it off to get the whole housing out, but not for the bulbs right?
Also, do I need any tools to change the bulbs? I'm going to the store right after work and it's gonna be dark so I'll hopefully be able to change it in the parking lot.
Thanks
and i did search a few times but couldn't find the thread/answer.

Rep Power: 283 no you do not need to take off ur front bumper. You should be able to reach right into it, but i think on the driver side, you have to remove the washer fluid container in order to reach it. Its no big deal, u just wiggle it out, and when ur done, put it back in, it shouldnt take more than 5min to do this.

If you got an OE headlight then that's an easy fix, if you have the projector headlights then you have to take the bumper off...
