As seen in this tutorial, removing the front headlights in the Nissan Pathfinder is an extremely simple operation. First, remove the front grille by unlocking the relevant pins located on the sides and the upper edge, then, using a 10mm spanner, unscrew the headlight mounting bolts, two located on the upper edge, one on the inner edge, and the last one at the back.

Once this is done, unscrew the wheel arch bolts from the bumper, grasp the headlight, gently shake it, and pull it out from the bodywork, finally disconnecting the power connector.
