headlight removal?

Hope this isnt too dumb a question. I cant seem to get the pass side headlight out of my 2000 F250 SD. Got the top two clips out and the manual mentions a lower attaching point. I cant find it let alone figure out how to get it undone. Any thoughts, tricks or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Oh yeah, thanks to you guys for all the posts about adding driving lights, used the search function and installed the new ones today. I ended up wiring them into the side marker lights. Works great!!

The bottom mount is a pop-in that goes through a hole in the header panel. I used a socket the correct size (3/8-7/16) to compress it from the backside so it could push back through the hole. Just push it though with the socket and it works pretty good.
