Default Replacing tail light and head light?

I'm new to this forum and Audi. I purchased my first used 1999 Audi A6 Avant Quattro Wagon. I want to replace the head light and tail light.

Is there any specific instruction for it? I cannot locate it on this forum. Maybe, I don't know how to search for it in here. Any help?

Thanks.

I installed the new driver side tail light assembly. It is very simple.

1. Remove the CD changer cover (in the trunk and driver side).
2. Pull out the black plastic insulation piece.
3. Remove 4 nuts from the back of the tail light.
4. Un-plug the electrical connection.
5. Pull out the old tail light assembly straight toward you.
6. Install the new tail light assembly in the reverse orders.

Done.
