Default 2500 HD Headlamps

Has anyone changed or replaced their headlamps in their 07/08, 2500HD? There are a couple of bolts under the hood that loosen up the head light pod, but there seems to be another hidden bolt, lower down. I'm thinking that I might have to loosen up the inner fender well to access this hidden bolt. Typical GM innovation, I could change all the bulbs on my 05 in about 10 minutes.
