I've been able to replace my headlights without removing the bumper. It's just hard to get your hand in there to do it. You just gotta take your time, but it can be done.

Yeah I think they show you in the manual, no need to remove the bumper or anything.

On the drivers side there is a resivor with a red top you can slide it off by just pulling up it gives you alot of room

For the regular headlight, you should be able to reach them from the engine bay. The passenger's side is easy. The driver's side has the resevoir (power steering I believe), with the red cap. If you lift up on the resevoir, it slides out of it's holster and yo can move it aside to get to the headlight. You dont have to reach from the fenderwell or take off a bumper/fender.

This is all in the manual.
