2003 350z parking lights

I'm trying to replace the stock parking light on my Z. Is there an easier way to replace them besides taking off the whole bumper or taking off the front wheels? Pleas help!!! Thanks

I will look at mine and let you know sometime tomorrow what idea i have, i'm thinking through the wheel well, with the wheel on. But taking the wheel off is a lot quicker than the front bumper. I'll look at it and see what i come up with.....

Ok, i looked at it and it looks to me (on mine) your gonna want to jack up the car and take off your skidplate/plastic protector plate underneathe the car. (Note* i didn't do this, but this weekend i plan to have the car in the air so if you haven't done it yet then i can really let you know after this weekend- i will check back with you post weekend)ok back to instructions; your gonna remove all plastic covering from the bottom of the car, and you should be able to easily access the marker lights on the front bumper from underneath. All you need to remove the plastic is a 10mm -or- it may be a 13mm socket, or air ratchet. Glad to help if i did, sorry if i didn't. Oh yeah and on mine there is a plastic clip that holds the plastic shield on right in the middle, use a flathead to pop out the center of the clip, be careful though, if you pop it out to far it will stay in, just push the clip back in until it comes out (funny design). Do not force it out. Let me know where you get.
