Thanks to all that replied, mainly: Ted S, Atwell, and
Patrick B. Thought I'd let you guys know...

I did remove the headlight housing from the bonnet.
Those three bolts were indeed a pain to find/remove.
There were three small screws holding the headlight
securing ring (no special tool required).

When I removed the headlamp itself I noticed my
adjusters were all stripped and really were not
functioning... (guess I'll re-do them sometime in the
near future). I did pick-up a new headlight at my
local part store and installed it so I am once again
street legal! Thanks guys.

The new lamp is Halogen (they had nothing else) and my
other headlight is just regular so my new lamp is
definately brighter. It's gonna bug me so I'm going to
replace the other light now as well! See ya.
