(Disclaimer: The following is for entertainment purposes only. 
)
Step 1: Get one of the moderators & put him to work taking off the screws.
Step 2: Find another club member who's not working & get him to help.
Step 3: Call yet another member over & then carefully remove the front bumper. Remember that hell hath no fury like a woman whose front bumper's been dropped.
Step 3a: Remember that all screws must be out to remove the bumper!
Step 4: Once the front bumper is off & the car looks scary, get RatedS2k to give you a money shot.
Step 5: While the brace is being unscrewed, try to get another money shot of RatedS2k.
Step 6: Unplug the headlight. Sorry kids, no money shot here.
Step 7: At this point, the car will look down-right frightening.
Step 8: This is what the removed headlight looks like
Step 9: Bake the headlight at 200 degrees for 12 minutes or until done. Remove it from the oven & carefully use a flathead screwdriver to separate the front of the headlight (being careful not to slice any fingers off).
Step 10: Next unscrew the thing-a-ma-bob that holds the diffuser in.
Step 10a: Doesn't this look interesting!
Step 11: Put the new diffuser in, screw the casing back on, place back in headlight, close & seal. Got that folks?
Step 12: Place the newly sealed headlight back in (remembering to plug it in).
Step 13: Put the other headlight back in & get a leg shot of an unsuspecting member.
Step 14: Put the front bumper back on, line everything up, screw the screws back in & have yet another club member pose in front!
Viola! Done!
I hope you've enjoyed this thorough (yeah, right!) "how-to".

Now we know Tommy can't count...he did the same thing on his bumper at the last tech session. After a bit of bumper wiggling it finally slid off of the car...only to bend the plastic underpiece where a few forgotten screws resided
