Change headlight help

Alright, I want to change the headlights. All the manual says is go see the dealer. How do i get to the headlight assembly to change the bulbs myself? Thanks.

Talking

go to any auto store, just tell them you are look for headlight (headlight bulb, what ever tha case is) for a (year, car, model) and they will usually check to see if they have in stock which they should... and then you can change it your self, if you already have the parts i recomend you go buy a HAYNES booklet, it tells you EVERYTHING about your car and how to fix it, it is based on a COMPLETE take apart AND rebuild of your car, the book cost about $10-$17 but its well worth it... but usually if your just replacing the bulb, then you unplug the wire from the back of the bulb, unsecure the bulb from the headlight, and then replace it, and resecure the bulb, and plug the plug back in...
