What Did You Do To Your HHR Today?
I have swapped at least 6 pairs of headlights in my HHRs.
It takes about an hour (maybe 2 the first time you do it). Basically, remove the bumper cover and then a couple of screws per headlight assembly.
The only tricky part is to release the clips holding the bumper to the front fender (I think there are 3 or 4 on each side) without scratching the paint on the fender or bumper cover. Using a flashlight, look into the small gap between the fender and bumper to find the tab that you have to press down to release the clip.

I take a flat-blade screwdriver that fits the tabs correctly, put heat shrink over the last inch or two( at the blade), and then shrink it tight against the screwdriver. This forms a tight plastic coating over the screwdriver to prevent scratches, but retains the metal screwdriver for rigidity.

Now I remember why I purchased the HHR. Drove to the big box home improvement store to purchase some 8 feet lengths of lumber. Folded the front and rear passenger seats flat, stacked the lumber in the back, closed the rear hatch and away I went. Easy Peasy! I could never do that with my "other car."
