Default '90 Sundance Headlight Assembly

How do pull the assembly to replace it
I have found the two obvious points on the front but there
seems to be a third I can't find.

The "obvious points on the front" are the aiming screws, not meant to be
used to remove the lamp. The lamp-and-bracket assembly bolts to the
radiator support panel.

That is the correct way. Trying to remove the adjusting screws or the
mounting clips while it is on the vehicle, will result in the mounting
*ears* being broken. I know from experience.
