You dont.

You have to drop the front bumper 2 bolts in each arch, 3 bolts on top of bumper. THen drop it. Then 3 bolts per headlight.

dropping the bumper can be hard for the first time which i have experienced lol, but you must drop it to access all bolts on the headlight

On my mate i managed to undo the bolts holding the top of the bumper on and one under the arch and then i could get to the third bolt for the lights without taking the whole bumper off.

If your doing grilles lew u will need to have it off m8. Will create so much more work for yourself if you don't. It really isn't complicated m8, the arch bolts can be fiddly first time but other than that its a doddle!
