Entire headlamp assenbly is very simple plug-and-play, often no tools required.
Sometimes you need a flat screwdriver to pry open the locking tab on the loom connector. If you wish to dismantle the headlamp and replace any internal pieces, then you will need to battle with the weatehrproof sealant used to glue the lens to the body.

I'd think a straight replacement would be easier. Hope it helps

Not so easy
You need the headlamp control unit underthe left hand front seat The wiring looms The software And given that Active Bending Lights was never available as a retrofit, it may not be possible to activate the software

It cant be done. The headlamp type is programmed into the CEM at manufacture and cannot be changed later - not even by the dealer. The affects how the headlamps are controlled and how electrical power is switched to them.
