Good luck lol your gonna have to go under the wheel well or easiest way to change it is take of the front bumper. Now for all the work you should go hid lights not just the bulbs....also use the search buttom very useful.

Start the car. Turn the wheel all the way to one side. Shut off the car. Pull on the inner fender well (plastic) and you'll see the bulb. Unplug the bulb and twist counter clockwise. The bulb is now out. Put the new bulb in in the reverse order. You'll need to start the car and turn the wheel the other way to do the other side. Goodluck!
