Any know how to get the headlights out of an X300?
Is there a trick to it or should then just pull out?

Should just pull out as individual units, held in by little ball & socket clips if I remember correctly

Thanks, I thought that was how it works. I'll try pulling a little harder. Of course it's anyone's guess how well the plastic clips will work after 20 years, or whether they've gone brittle.

A nice fellow wrote an article on how to remove the headlights (you might want to use a dryer to warm up the plastic):
