make sure you already got the turn signals out they come out with just 2 screws after that you can usualy a 1/4 inch ratchet in there to remove bolts, if ones stripped try to pry down on the bolt with a flat screwdriver while you loosen the bolt with the ratchet

Gotta come in from the bottom (if you're referring to the bottom back bolt that is)

If you're trying to take the fog light out with the screw in the front, that's not right. That is the adjustment screw. There are 3 nuts in the back of the fog light the you can access through the turn signal hole.

And yeah, the best way to get at the headlight bolts is through the bottom. The front bumper is kind of a pain to remove/install.
