2000 300M Headlight Assembly

My wife had a very minor collision against the back of another car a few
days ago. The other car was virtually unscathed. However, our 300M had a
little damage, which includes the cracking of the passenger side headlight
assembly. I'm trying to decide if this is something that I can repair
myself, but I'm not certain of just what needs to be taken loose to make
room to remove the broken assembly. Any insight you could share would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The front facia needs to be partially removed to get the headlight
assembly in and out. You can find details on how to do it with
shortcuts using a search on the 300M Club forums
