Thanks, but that's what i was looking for here. Do I need to remove the headlight assembly to just replace the low bean lamp? Or can the lamp be replaced without removing the while headlight? If so, how?

I figured it out myself. Lamp is held to the headlight assembly by a clip. Unlocked clip and swung away, pulled out lamp holder, replaced lamp and re-installed lamp holder with clip. Done.
