I believe its a case of pop them up (then disconnect the battery to stop them popping down?) and they can be accessed from below the car.

I think that once released the sealed beam unit can be replaced from the front of the car.

I hope this is of some help and I'm sure it will be corrected if I am wrong.

First bit is right.

1. Slacken off earth strap to battery
2. Turn on headlights
3. Remove earth strap
4. Headlamp can now be accessed from the front
5. Remove bezel (2 screws at 3 and 9 o'clock)
6. Pop headlamp off the adjusters
7. Bulb can be accessed from back of lens unit.

You can also just reach underneath and up inside and by turning the knob on the bottom of each motor, manually lift the pods.

.. To lower, ofcoruse, keep turning
