I have done it a couple of times without taking out the headlights but it is just as you said.

There is one 10mm bolt that hold in the headlights. Take it out and push/slide/pull on the headlights towards the middle. It is held in by two tabs. Then take out the 7 mm screws that hold in the corner lights. From there you'll have to mess around with the lights to get them to come out and put the clears in. With the headlights removed, you should be able to see what needs to be done.

I usually take out the headlights when changing the corners. There is three 7mm bolts holding the corner in. Two on the side and one on the bottom. Then you just wiggle the corner until it comes out. You can go from underneath as well but I think its easier getting to them through the top.
