There is an access door in front of each front wheel on the wheel well. The Haynes book says remove the wheel and put the car on a stand for safety, but I just turned the steering wheel to get to it, without removing the wheel. You then turn the bulb holder to remove it and unhook the wiring plug. The new bulbs come with the holder attached. DO NOT touch the glass on the lamp, as the oil on your fingers can etch the glass and make the bulbs fail prematurely. Hope this helps.

if you do touch the glass, wipe the bulb with rubbing alcohol and a clean lint free cloth.

I found that the access, reaching and fitting your hand through that area is a key problem. Find someone with a long skinny arm & hand!
