Mounting thru horn grill lights

Hello All,
I‘m trying to replace my existing thru the horn driving lights with LED Oscar Minis. I can see where the existing lights mount to the bracket behind the grill though can‘t figure out how to access the nut. Do I need to remove the entire bumper / spoiler first? Is there a trick I'm missing?


Here's the nut. So enticingly close...




Does the full bumper / spoiler need to be removed to get access?




These are what I'd like to install...

Normally you have to disconnect the bracket on the battery box, remove the light and then you have access to the rear bolt. Sometimes you have to pull the horn grill with the bracket.

the bracket bolts go from inside the battery box. This means you have to pull your battery(ies) as well for access.

Thank you! Why didn't I think of that. Come at it from the bracket mount vs the light mount... duh...
I love this forum!
