I found out it can actually be done without taking off the bumper completely when I tried doing it myself.
1. Remove 1 bolt on top center row of bumper bolts(there are multiple, but remove the one closest to the headlight you want to remove)
2. Remove screws on outer edge of bumper, accessible by the fender liner
3. Pull bumper out a few inches to expose the side headlight bolt
4. Remove bolt on side of headlight
5. Remove bolt on top of headlight
Headlight will now be loose and can be pulled out. Be careful as the headlight edges are somewhat sharp and can scratch the paint as you pull it out.
6.Disconnect connector on back

Thanks for that, will make changing the headlight globe(s) a lot easier if I ever need to do it again.

Should make this a sticky. Great step by step instructions on changing out the headlight and bulb. (Although you can do the passenger side without removing, you do have to move the fuse box though).
