There has to be a better way to change the headlights. 10 2SS/RS

I have a 2010 2SS/RS and I am trying to change my passenger side headlight. Every guide I see tells me to take off the whole front end basically. It looks like I should be able to remove the fuse box to be able to get in there a little easier.

Has anyone done this? If so do I just remove the 3 bolts from the fusebox and pull up?

Thanks in advance!

Youre going to have to remove the whole bumper, but its really not that big of a deal to do.

You have to remove the front bumper. I know it seems overwhelming, but it's a lot easier than you'd think. There's a couple videos on YouTube that show you how.

You also have to take your rear bumper off to change the reverse lights.

what are you trying to do exactly? Change the whole assembly? Change the bulb?

If changing the whole assembly, you have to remove the front end. If just changing the bulb, you don't need to remove anything, you can just reach your hand in between the light and one of the air compressor lines and take the cover off (it's on very tight). The fuse box, while maybe giving you a little more room actually isn't what's in the way of the cover, it's the air compressor lines.
