Replacing a headlight on a '97 Pathfinder

[gpbeck]

Hopefully someone out there has had this problem. A rock hit my right side headlight taking out a nice chunk of the glass. I've got a replacement headlight assembly, but I'm not sure what steps I need to take to replace it. At first look, it appears I need to take off the right front fender to access all the bolts. I can't believe I need to go through all this work to simply replace the assembly.

Can anyone guide me along? Any illustrations or explaination would be much appreciated.

TIA.

Remove corners, lower valance(just above the bumper), then remove grille to access the bolts fo headlight.
