The morrettes have a separate wiring loom, they are easy to disconnect.

Once you have them off, they are no different gettin the bulbs out to
a normal headlight.

There is four nuts on the back of on each unit, and remove the front grill
at the same time, this is just two screws in the slam panel..

you might have to remove the side lights in the wings aswell, not sure
but thats easy just a pull spring behind the headlight.

Hope that helps..

You dont "have to" take the bumper off coz you can get at the bolts with the spot light/indicators out but it is easier with it off
