Ne need to remove bumper. Open your hood, twist the bulb door/cover(not sure what's the right term) and replace the bulb

Didn't realize this was on 3rd gen, thought it was 2nd gen, I could be wrong but should be the same

It's very easy on both sides. 3 minutes each bulb.

1. pull out the clear plastic cover by rotating it.
2. unlock the metal cover that has the plug for the bulb, there is some arrows on it showing which way to lock it, do it the opposite to unlock it and pull it out.
3. there is a little metal thing holding the bulb into the headlight assembly, unclip these and the bulbs will come out.

on drivers side I had to remove the windshield washer spout since I have big hands, just needed a 10mm.

took about 20mins for my first time and not knowing what I was doing...
