Just remove the screws holding the headlight bezel in and then unplug the connector the the turn signal bulbs. The only difficult part will be if the screws have rust and don't want to come out without wallowing the screw head out. If they are difficult, get some valve lapping compound and dip the tip of the screw driver in it. This will let it "bite" and twist the screw out, not round the head out.
Yea old steel screws suck. You can try to screw them out, but don"t strip the heads out to bad if they won't turn.That way if you have to drill the head off the old rusty screw will have a good spot for the drill. Drill bit should be about the same size a screw shaft so it will take the head right off without any damage to any thing else. Also spray the screws as good as possible with some penetrating oil. you can use some vice grips to try and get the rest of the screw out. Home depot for screws and the auto parts store for new screw clips. Once the grill shell is off, repeat until you have off what you want. Sounds a little tough but not so bad. Just drill enough to take the screw head off and if you have to remember if you have to do that on a plastic part have water close to keep plastic cool or the friction will melt or deform your part.
