    You'll need to remove the plastic covers on the rear of the lights (the larger ones held in by metal clips). The bulbs are right inside the covers - they're held in, not very tightly, by metal 'finger' clips, just pull and wiggle and it'll come out. Once it's free, disconnect from the cable and remove and replace.

    The pass. side should be easier once you get the airbox out of the way, the driver side has PS reservoir in the way (remove two bolts and you can move it--without disconnecting hoses ofc).

    Hopefully someone can come in with a DIY/photos. Good luck
