Headlight question

Hey guys.. I bought sliverstars for my truck about 3 weeks ago and just had time to try and install them yesterday.. Well i got the blubs into the fog lights with no problem at all.

Here is the problem.. I find it stupid that I cant get the headlight bulb out with out having to remove the headlight. I tried to remove the headlight but it seems there are more bolts then the top bolt and the 2 on the inner grill side of the light...

Can some one help me out here so I can install my new sliverstars.. I just feel like a dumb *** asking for help for this..

There is also a clip on the inside you cant see. Gotta give thelight a good tug to get it to break free.

When I removed mine I noticed the clip on the back of a screw on top. I used pliers to get the screw out. Is that what your talking about?

I bolt on top and 2 on the inner portion close to the grill. Then just get a good hold and pull.
