+1 turn the wheel and remove the bolt and 2 clips.. reach behind.

There is a long plastic end to it so it's very easy to grab.. long I mean an inch and a half or so.

I've had to do this three times on different cars. No sweat, 10 min job at most if you have to go back and forth for different sockets or screwdrivers... 5 mins if it's all in front of you

Like Dire Straits says..."That's the way you do it...."
DO NOT REMOVE THE BUMPER COVER UNLESS YOU ARE BORED....
Pull the inner fender back!

Took the wrong bulb out first... lol.

Replaced it with a good 'ol 194.

Now if I could just get my lights aimed HIGHER!!!!
I've tried turning the 10mm thingie but the cable that is SUPPOSED to be spun by the crap-*** plastic gear is bound up.

I'm pretty sure it is this plastic gear (via cable) that raises or lowers the light.
