UPDATE:
as a dealership employee, I get a discount on service and parts, so at the moment, I'm allowing the service dept. to replace these bulbs. I usually do my own service work on my own cars, but I'm super busy today in the insurance dept. with quotes and service, and I'm working late today and don't really want to drive home in the dark with only one headlight!
Thanks for the advise, if I had more time I'd tackle this myself, but sometimes you have to delegate...:(
At least I work at an AWESOME dealership with a terrific service dept!
Thank you, Woodhouse!

p.s. I googled this, and found a you tube video showing the removal of the grille to access the headlight housing removal...seriously? Oy...really makes me miss driving my '76 Power Wagon...
