they are held in with like a ball on the end of the stick that fits in between two pics of plastic.
they just pull out. or you can take your headlight out and slide the motor up or down and it just pops out of the two bits of plastic

I had a few problems when I did mine so I got Citroen to do it :) Hehe!
They can be a fiddly bit of equipment to remove.

the way i did it was to get my finger in were the actual headlight bulb goes and lift the insert (reflector) up to get the clip right up to the hole, this made it easy to put the ball joint thing on the motor back in

Yep... that is one way. It sometimes just comes out by fiddling it.

i had the glass off my headlights so was a piece of piss to get them back in, but my mate had to do his with the glass on, had to push his finger in for it to clip on
