I believe you can just open the hood and get to it pretty easy. Is that all you are looking for or do you need bulb info etc...

no i looked at it and seam to be a lot of work to get it out. looks like the nissan wants you to bring the car in for everthing. i checked out your ride and how hard was it to replace your tail lights to the led's?

I just changed the right one on my 2004, if yours is the same. I pulled on the bumper to pop the fender liner out a bit. I reached in and twisted the light holder up in the housing. It's awkward, take off the wristwatch, roll up the sleeve, it's recessed a bit. You can pull out the whole unit if you remove 2 nuts, but I doubt it is any easier. Pull out the light and reverse procedure. Getting it to turn back in was more awkward. I bought a 50 watt light at Pep Boys to brighten things up a bit. It was meant to replace a backup light and I had to put tape over one of the contacts on the base, otherwise worked like a charm.

Nope 07 is different than the 04, the cornering lights are up in the main lens...and please do not go to the dealer for a bulb replacement. It can be done!!!
