Taking out front lights on A33 I30

I got the two front screws out of the front lights and unhooked it out of the white holder but there is something holding it in to prevent me from taking the whole thing out. I'm trying to take the orange dome out of the turn signal while taking puting the lamin-x I just got on teh fogs. Does anyone know where I can find a DYI to do it both of these correctly?

Thanks,
Chuck

Are you trying to remove the plastic lense from the front of the headlight? If so, I believe you'll need to heat up the lense so that the glue softens and then you can pull it away from the housing.

there is a third screw on the side and low of it. you have to go through the wheel well. remove the bolts of the plastic cover in the wheel well and then look straight up on the side. it is between the fender and some metal. Sorry if i am confusing

If I heat up the lense do I still have to take out the whole housing just to get the orange dome out?

Sorry, I'm a car noob.

Thanks,
Chuck

Also how do I go about taking the fog lights out? Do I have to take apart the whole bumper?

No, just get under the car and peel back some of the plastic pieces under there. You can access all the screws you need to take out the entire assembly for both fog lights from there. Just get under there and look. It'll make sense when you see it.
