headlamp replacement

Hi. I'm just trying to figure out how to replace the headlamps on the
2005 Jeep Cherokee. Alot of stuff in the way, and I think there must be
an easier way than removing the grill. Please help!

Do you mean the Grand Cherokee (WK) or is this an export model Liberty (KJ)?

Why not just reach inside from the back?

Open the hood
Reach inside behind the headlamp
Release the bulb -- typically held in place by a spring
Take the bulb out
WITHOUT TOUCHING THE NEW BULB load it into the carrier and insert the bulb
and carrier into the back of the headlamp
Set the spring back
Close the hood
Have a beer and put Oprah on.

I looked around http://www.wkjeeps.com/ and all I could find was
the bulb for them, no instructions. I know the others come out with one
screw, and carefully pulling the legs from another three rubber cups:

if you want those POS blue things as they warn you many times with all
the sensors you'll at least buy a five hundred dollar rear view mirror.
Using the K car nomenclature seems very appropriate for your car.
