2000 V70 SE / 270K miles / B5422S Denso / AW-5

About to undertake the next project:
Splice in new headlight pigtails (available from ipd) to replace crumbling wires/insulation in the headlamp socket compartment. This job is long overdue; had a blown fuse lately because of electrical short in the now-bare wiring.

I'd like to get upstream enough in the harness to cut out then resplice all of the rotten wire. It looks like the headlight housings (front grille too?) need to be removed to do the splicing job.

Any experience with this procedure out there?
