you need to flip up the headlights with the dash override button, above the hazard switch, then remove the plastic cowl/bezel from around the headlight, 2 x phillips screws on each side, then with the cowl removed you can remove the headlight retaining ring  which then allows the headlight to be removed & bulbs changed.

if you have sealed beams you wont be able to change the bulb... you'll need to buy new headlights... that can mean either a new sealed beam unit or a halogen upgrade (well worth it IMO) i went for raybriggs (now on 5alives car) much brighter - just make sure if you do buy some that they are not left hand drive... likely if you buy on the internet...
