Default SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP: headlight trouble

Just bought a 97 civic dx hatch...cant get the headlight off...removed two bolts on the top of the housing and one more that i had to reach between the front bumper to get to on the side of the light twoards the middle of the car. Dont know whats wrong..cant get it out. Thanks! Allright..just went back and rechcked...on the outside of the car (towards the tires) is there a screw or just a clamp? I feel like i can almost wiggle it loose...?

as far as i rememeber, there are 4 bolts...2 on top,and one on each side of the headlight...all 10mm...theres also a black piece of metal in front of the headlight that keeps it in place...held there with i believe 2 more 10mm bolts...its always best to remove the bumper when taking off 6th gen civic headlights, makes everything so much easier...

Right where your tire wall is remove the front part of it there should be some kind of pushpin. Reach in an there should be a screw right around there close the side of your headlight
