Take all the plugs off the back, then the two bolts and then...........pull the bugger off.
Its sitting into a funny little clip that locates it.
Trust me , its easy
I just pulled it off with my hands, no levers needed
(no jokes about me pulling pls!)

I put one hand behind the light and one infront and just pushed on the back of it.
Take care not to bash it off the bumper when it pops free.
Also remember the plugs need to come off

Somebody did a thread about not needing to bake the headlights, simply break up the orange dome with a pair of long-nose pliers and the bits shake out of the hole ( sounds easy but I cheated and bought de-tangoed ones he-he )
