Look at the top of the headlight assembly,you will see two straps that are locking straps,pull these straps up and the whole assembly will come out.Use a pair of pliers to pull the straps up

I do not see any two straps at the top of my headlight. the only thing I see is like two bolts and the adjustment screw thing

Ok look just behind those adjustment screws,or around there do you see two bolts with a bracket that holds the headlight assembly on they will be black,if you dont see the straps these two bolts will need to be removed to release the whole headlight assembly
