Default headlight issue

This is I am sorry to say an incredibly newb question but i just purchased some new d2s's and I cant get the headlights out. I removed all three torx screws but the lights still feel like they are being held in by something. I also disconected the main harness so I have no clue what it could be attached to. any help would be appreciated. Its a beautiful night and those 8000k's are just begging to be put in

I just removed all the screws and pulled and it popped out, went back in smoothly so I must have done it right.

from and AW thread, http://www.audiworld.com/tech/ext30.shtml
this is basic disassembly...


1. Headlamp Removal
The first thing you have to do is remove the headlamp unit. There are 3 torx screws holding the lamp unit to the car.(circled in yellow) The top 2 are fairly obvious. The 3rd one on the other hand is down 4 or 5 inches beneath the white lamp adjustment screw(indicated by the red arrow). Once unscrewed, slide the unit out, don your operating gloves and slap it on the table.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO LOSE THE SCREW OR BIT/DRIVER DOWN THE HOLE.
