I have a spare and only remember that it has a big warning sticker over the headlight assembly.

Just make sure your ignition is off and the headlight switch is off.

They have a big connector block that goes on the back of the bulb. This turns approx 60* then pulls off the bulb. You then remove the bulb, taking note of the orientation. Refit in reverse order.

Can be fiddly, but if you are good with your fingers its fine. If youre a clumsy fucker it will be awkward.
