do you mean to replace the bulbs or the entire housing?
either way there are two pins directly behind each headlamp assembly were it attaches to the frame. those simply rotate towards the front of the car and pull up and out. once those are free the entire headlamp assembly comes out. the bulbs are behind two separate large plastic screw covers. remove those and you'll see the back of the bulb and harness. the entire unit attaches to the body harness through a large block connector.
i do like Saturn's approach on this headlight. it's a lot easier to change a bulb with it out of the car.
tell me, if you bought complete replacement headlamps, are they factory style or aftermarket? if the latter, where did you get them. I'm having trouble myself, I didn't think anyone was producing them yet.
