Default How do you remove the headlight brackets???

I have all the wiring and stuff for the installation of my euro lights. This could be a dumb question, But I have a problem - I can't get the headlight mounting brackets off of the car! I can only get to the top two screws, how do I remove the bottom two??
I looked in my Bentley, but it only shows how to do it on a 4k/cgt, which has a different style bumper than the Urq.

If anyone can explain this for me, it would be greatly appreciated!
TIA-BrittM

Default Take off the bumper

To take off the bumper cap, remove bumper plugs (if you still have them), 6mm (or 8mm, I forget) allen wrench into the 4 bolts that hold the cap on, then you can get to the other two headlight screws on each side.

Note: when removing the bolts that hold the bumper on, break each loose before removing any. I twisted off a bolt when the bumper shock turned with the other bolt out.
