Be prepared for a fight with them, two of us trying to do a mk7 headlight the other day had to give in and take it down to a garage! Hopefully mk6 are a bit better

the MK7 you undo the screws and just pull it hard
the MK6 is undo the screws pull it forward then twist clockwise and then it will come out
