If you lift the bumper too high it's almost impossible to get to the screws to remove the marker light
I finnally lowered my bumper some last week after fighting the screws four times

You can always just loosen the bolts and drop the bumper a little to mess with the headlights. It's easy if you've got a second person around. Plus no matter how high or low it is the left hand side is lower than the right.
