Okay removed and re-installed my headlights today. Here is my thought... If you really have a hard time to get behind the headlight units to tackle on the clip and the main connector, jack up your car take off the wheel and fender might be the easiest way. Because then you will get a full access.

Great DIY, found it very helpful today,
just a couple of differences, to the that nasty little clip, with the ziplock on it.
well I did a bit different, took a screw driver got under the little tab and pushed it out.
then I was able to lift the head light assemble out and remove the electric connector.

why, I at times get to be all thumbs when it comes to working on cars...

but this was very helpful....
