it's just a standard wedge bulb (w2?)

you use a cloth to wrap a flat head screw driver and just pop the side marker out..

the precedure is in your owner's manual.. just don't scratch the paint

I'd like to switch out the amber turn signal in the headlights turning it from amber to blue.

I gotta say that the clear markers are way better than those amber ones.
