pretty sure you have to pull th front bumper off then ther is 4 blots of each headlight that have to be removed then the headlight will slide out and you will be able to get to it easy... besides that theres no way to get to the light

might not need to take your wheel off i needed to since my car is lowered and couldnt fit arm in there, if your stock ride height you might be able to reach in with wheel on, all you need is a 10 mm socked and phillips head for body fasteners and the one snap in one in upper fender well

i had the same bulb out on my passenger side. all you need to do is take the fasteners off of the liner in the wheel well, i think there's 3 of them. then just turn the wheels so you can get your hand up there and find the socket you need to get to. It just twists out. Replace the bulb and reassemble it all. Takes 5 minutes, no need to remove the bumper.
