you don't have to remove the bumper. look for the retaining screws around the top of the headlight housing. PLEASE READ UPDATE FOR ZX2 (mine is 2001)
This is not true on the ZX2 Coup, you do have to remove the bumper skin to expose 3 nuts that hold the headlight assembly in. You can do this but I'm guessing your not a pro cause your here, neither am I, but I just did it. It will take you the afternoon. Best to put front end on jack stands, remove front tires, remove front plastic inner fender well protectors, unbolt bumper skin from inside front fender wells and at top under hood. Also turn and remove front turn signal lamps before removing bumper skin since ts lens goes w/ it. Do not remove black plastic brace between radiator/ac condenser and bumper skin...it holds the headlight lens assembly. Remove/replace headlights and put back the way you took apart. Be careful of wiring and not to break the old fragile socket clips to the lights or you will cause more work. Be patient at this point...take a break first, then look carefully at what your doing. What the gentleman said at the start is likely true for the Escort sedan but the coup is trickier. if this scares you pay someone. Good luck.
