Im searching around and I cant get a straight answer.

I took off the 2 screws on the driver side, pulled out the right part of the light, then the left it got loose but i cant get it out. am i missing any screws?

Do you know if you have data dots or not? Also, popping the clips that keep the grill part of the bumper up help you get a bit more wiggle room.

Nope. Try removing the bulb cover on the low beam. That usually helps. Then fiddle around with the inner portion.

Yes it's not an hid video, but in the beginning of the video the narrator clearly states that headlight removal and install is the same with the exception of different wires to disconnect.

Be patient with it when you go to reinstall. One side goes in first before the other... I just don't remember which side
