1. Open the hood.
2. Remove all Engine covers.
3. Look a tthe head lights, there should be 2 slots with doors. One is DRL, the other is low beam. For DRL you dont need to remove intake (only remove intake when changing lows).
4. Remove clips holding door to lights in place.
5. Open door and turn DRL ( ibelieve counter clockwise) so that it seperates from the lens.
6. Once DRL is off the lens remove DRL bulb without touching the bulb itself.
7. Reverse steps to put blub and close the lens.
8. Repeat for other side.

The DRL on your 2009 is also known as the high beam bulb (it runs at 50% wattage), in case that helps with trying to find the bulb, etc. It would more commonly be called the high beam bulb (9005 type).
