Default how do I remove JDM headlights on a DC2 Integra?

Help. I am trying to remove the JDM headlights from my '94 Integra so I can thoroughly clean them, etc. Anyway, I got the two bolts on the top, but it still feels like something is holding it in, possible from the outside corner. I don't have to remove the bumper or fenders or anything just to remove the headlights right?
Thanks in advance
ps - sorry for the double post, but i need help as soon as possible

Yes, you do need to remove the bumper. There are two more bolts you have to remove.

two bolts, one bolt connecting the fender, and the second one is bolted onto the rad support.

Not hard at all to remove the bumper. You wont have to remove the fenders either.

if you removed the grille in the middle already, you're practically half done w/the bumper removal. there are 2 screws on each end (attaches to fender).

then you just "pull" it out since it clips into the bumper support.

ps. dont forget all the bolts on the bottom of the bumper!

You can't take apart the housing, so if ur trying to get inside u can forget about it the clear casing in the front is made into the plastic casing on the back. I have 2 sets of JDM headlights and a extra right one lol so i would know.

Peace.
