Not too sure on the 2000, I have a 2003. Check the owner's manual, it should tell you how to do it. Or call the service department at a dealer, they'd know.
In all honesty it wouldn't surprise me if you had to move the battery, they are quirky cars!
Good luck!

not on the 2000. you have to take off the whole bumper to get the headlights out.
