2005 Pontiac G6.I got the head light out! Spout396s procedure was correct except #4, the light pulls straight out from fender. It is held on by a thinguhmajig. A metal bolt that plugs into a plastic socket. I had to pull the light out at the other end, as much as possible,and spray some oil on the retainer (thinguhmajig) to free it up.Let the oil penetrate for a while. You can't pull to hard because the plastic socket is mounted in a thin metal strip inside the fender,it doesn't seem to sturdy.I didn't have to disconnet any wiring, just open the plastic cover on back to get at bulbs.Props to my brother-inlaw,he has seen these connectors on other vehicle headlights.Hope this helps any other DIYers.Thanks again to Spout396 & Rick.
