I strongly recommend putting some form of lubricant on the plugs in the back of the headlight units - I have smeared silicon grease round mine. The faff of trying to unplug them will otherwise risk damage to the paintwork around the headlamp. A smear of slippery stuff on the plugs and it's easy-peasy.

You have to take them out to flip to continental beam alignment. You may well not have a cloth to protect the bumper and a flat-bladed screwdriver to hand as you stand in the tiny gap between you and the car in front on Le Shuttle.
