Per so head light will go around it to come out after you get the bits or nuts off the headlight.
Google it for step-by-step instructions.
A dealership will charge you $80+ per hour to have their tech change it. A local mechanic's garage may charge you less, but not much less.
Either do it yourself, or pay the bucks.
First of all, reported for profanity.
Second, it would be infinitely helpful to know what kind of vehicle you are working on.
On most new cars it's necessary to just remove the headlight from the engine compartment and change the bulb which takes all of 10 minutes. You'll feel sick how easy it is when someone shows you how. It's not necessary to tear the car apart either. You need help.
Spending an hour blind can be frustrating. Unless you're working on a Mercedes, go to the public library and look in Chilton's Auto Repair manual. It will tell you exactly how to do this job. Xerox the section because they will not let you take the book home. If one bulb blew out, the other will blow out soon and the other side's method might be different. If you haven't got a basic set of tools, you need to get some cheap ones. Many shops charge $100 an hour and double the price of the part. Maybe you don't mind spending a lot of money instead of DIY. At this point, it sounds like you have given up.
Mercedes' are unnecessarily complicated and screwing them up costs a mint to get straight.
We charge 150
I just spent an hour trying to get the ******* headlight bulb out of my car and I've determined it's impossible without dismantling the entire car or having 8 week old fetus hands. How much will it cost to have someone do it for me? If I have to pay someone 50 dollars to replace a bulb I better get a ******* with that or something.
