You do not have to remove the cover the bulbs simply pull out of the back just twist and pull

you could do this yourself,, but if the lights are still working why bother? if there broken change them ,,just dont tuch the glass on the bulbs with your fingers,,it causes them to blow early,,so hold them in paper

Usually, one has to get the entire headlight assembly to replace the lens.
Is it cracked?
If it is just faded, try some anti-haze polish for headlights. This can save you some money compared to restoring the headlamp by replacing the assembly (which may be available from a salvage yard).

itself. Whenever handling a halogen bulb, ALWAYS follow these precautions:

• Turn the headlight switch OFF and allow the bulb to cool before
  changing it. Leave the switch OFF until the change is complete.
  
• ALWAYS wear eye protection when changing a halogen bulb.
  
• Handle the bulb only by its base. Avoid touching the glass.
  
• DO NOT drop or scratch the bulb.
  
• Keep dirt and moisture away from the bulb.

check for a poor ground connection at headlight bulb connection,really ground circiut resistence should be meassured with a multimeter,should be no more then 0.3 ohms

You have to open the hood and go at it from behind the bulb. look behind the light fixture set up and you will see where the light bulb goes. Simply twist off and pull out. the old light bulb will com out also.

you have to unscrew the round white houseing on the back of the head light assembly and then reach inside the headlight and pull the clip out then the bulb and wires come right out i know its a pain in the a#@ to get your hand in there but your only other choice is take the whole headlight assembly out and that is an even bigger project also the clip holding it in is kinda like a U clip and the bottom is attached so dont pull it out completly it kinda justs pivits itself out of your way
