It does.

You have to take the grille off to get to the headlight.

It's never that easy. I know on our Suburban and Truck the headlights have a pin that keeps them in. Takes 30 seconds to change any bulb, a little longer on the blinkers, as they're a little hidden, but still easy.

oh its a royal PIA! Right now i really dont wanna touch it because with the Tahoe down and out, the Blazers our backup car besides the Bonneville. I love for once having the car with no problems! lol. Is there a special tool to use when taking off the grille, it looks as if GM just clipped the grille assy in.
