changing headlights...

i bought some headlights, thinking it would be a piece a cake changing them, but ive been unsucessful so far... I have a ford explorer 1999, and there is a very small opening to reach in and i need to twist (i think, instructions for truck are bad) something that is untwistable...

i guess i could just take it into the shop, but id prefer to leave the easy jobs to myself...anyone else have a similar problem, with a solution?

you will probally have to remove the entire headlight. dont worry easier than it sounds on each headlight there should be 2 sliding brackets. if you pull these two brackets up the headlight should just about fall right out. thai will give you access to the bulbs.
