Headlight install

I got my smoked headlights in the other day and I was just wondering how exactly to swap em out. I see the two screws on top, but I'm not sure how to remove the headlights exactly. Between studying and work I haven't had much time to mess with it so if anyone could tell me exactly how to remove/install headlights it would be greatly appreciated.

The two screws on the top of the radiator support and there are two nuts attatched to posts on you lower marker turnsignal assembly you can reah them through the holes in the radiator support just below the battery trays then the whole light assembly will come out all 3 lights, and then you take apart the brackets that hold them together and swap out your headlights. If you good itll take you about 20 min to get it out and 15 to change out the components. 15-20 min to reassemble the light on the truck.

I got the two nuts off and pulled out the marker and turn signal. How do the headlights come out? Do you have to turn the adjustment parts and then they slide out?

yes you have to turn them 1/4 turn but they have locks on them you have to lift up, spray a little lube on them before you start.
