Default Removing Headlights

There's some car wax lodged in the outer seal of the headlights on my 2007 A3, but its suck in there pretty good and I'm having difficulty removing it. Can someone tell me how to remove the headlight assembly so I can get at it easier?

Unfortunately, in order for you to remove the headlamps, you MUST remove the bumpers. Good nes is- it gets easier after the 3rd time lol. Seriously though, its not a difficult job, just tedious (lots of bolts and nuts.

have fun, good luck , use caution, and have plenty beer after

Ugh, I figured that would need to be done . Is there a howto or diagram I can refer to so I'll know which bolts to remove?
