A7 Cornering Bulb

I am trying - without success - to find out how to change the passenger side front cornering bulb in the headlight assembly on my 2013 Audi A7. What I have been able to find is that it involves removing the headlight assembly entirely, which involves dropping down the bumper to unscrew/bolt the headlight assembly...but I cannot find any reference to HOW to go about doing this. Not on the forums, not on YouTube, internet - nothing, nada, zilch. Does anyone know where I might find out how to do this? It's a $20 bulb and a few hours worth of work with instructions - which I'm more than willing to do before I go to the dealer and hand over big bucks to do what I might be able to do myself.

I remove my headlights without removing the bumper. There are a few screws on top that have to be removed or loosened. You just have to be very careful working it out to protect the bumper cover and to not break the tabs on it. Also have to be careful to get the vent tube back on correctly when replacing the headlight. Ended up with condensation in the headlight when I didn't get it right.

Here's a guide to remove the front bumper assembly. (And also replace the grill, but you can skip that part - you also wouldn't need to COMPLETELY remove this bumper just to access the headlight assembly).
