Hiya, I know its been a while, but hey, I'm Back!!!

I'm guessing some twat has reversed into my car as the drivers side headlight is loose, so when you drive along it bounces, I spoke to Vauxhall and they say that its a clip thats broken on the bottom of the headlight, meaning the whole thing needs replacing which they want about £140 for!!! So I decided to have a look myself, the only thing is it looks like I will have to remove the entire bumper, which is probs also clipped in and I'm worried I will break those clips too!!!

Is there any way of doing a DIY job, that will be easy (and cheap) or should I just leave it to Vauxhall along with a big hole in my pocket!!!

Thanks in advance!!!
