The "push pin fasteners" are the pain you are having i believe. They push in, but to get them out you need squeeze them on the back & pull at the same time. If you happen to break a few, you can buy them in various sizes at the auto parts store. I hope this information is helpful, an owners manual will not have any info like this in it.
Sorry-- the images, are copyright owned & i can not post them here. Body shop quote is a bit high, $600 - 700 is what i was told, for labor only - If you have insurance...use it.
Did you get my question? I find the website confusing. How do I get the headlamp assemblies out? I took off the one mounting bolt that's obvious, but they still won't slide out. Please help soon - getting dark in NE Canada
Here is a video that might help you...the HL assy has 3 bolts.

This video doesn't apply. I think they changed extensively in 09 or 10. Mine only has one mounting bolt on top, but that doesn't release it completely. Any info on headlight assy for 10 or 11 would be much appreciated. Cheers B
