It's a little more complex. At least from what I remember. Since the headlight bucket is connected to the fender, you need to disconnect the headlight. Also, the various trim pieces by the grill attach to the headlight bucket, so you will need to adress those as well. There's also the bumper bolt.

It's been a while since I last did this so I don't remember if there are any hidden bolts that are only accessible if you take a specific part off. I do know that there is at least one fender bolt that is only accessible with the door open.

Just take your time and try to come up with some kind of plan of attack. Don't be surprised if it takes you longer than you expected.

Good luck!
