Open the hood, and remove the front grill by depressing the metal latch tab at the top of the grill and then pulling straight up.
Loosen the screw with washer on the side of the headlight assembly that secures the turn signal assembly, and remove the turn signal assembly by sliding it forward toward the front of the vehicle.
Move the headlight wiper arms forward, away from the headlight lens, to the 'open' or cleaning position.
Disconnect the headlight wiring connector from the side of the headlight assembly (side towards the turn signal). There is a plastic slide that locks the connector to the headlight housing.
Remove the two screws with washers at the top of the headlight housing. Remove one screwwith washer from the turn signal side of the headlight housing, near the bottom.
Gently pull the headlight assembly up and forward out of the grill area. There is a slot on the headlight housing that locates over a pin on the vehicle for alignment.
Assemble in reverse order. If things don't want to slide together, don't force them. When everything is properly aligned it should go together with very little coaxing. No need to re-aim the headlights. The locating pin and screws put everythiong back in good alignment.
I'm working from memory, but I think that is it.
