I bought the Toshiba equal to the german Philips, I am actually impressed with the quality, seems every bit as good and MUCH less expensive, highly recommend this vendor

for about $60.00 a pair you wont worry about it again for 4 or more years, but yea only in pairs should they be replaced

are we talking headlight or "highlight" which I am taking to mean the side markers? if its headlight the directions are below.
you take out the Fender Liners.. not the bumpers... its really simple to take the wheel off on each side and pop the fender liner out. This is how the service manual shows replacing the bulbs and I just did mine.. about 20 min a side.

I tried to replace the driver side clearance bulb by removing the front wheel liner without success. Now I truly believe the only way to get the clearance bulbs is by removing the front bumper cover. I'm now waiting for the passenger side clearance bulb to burnout so they look even.

be careful
My advice for headlight bulb replacement is to remove the tire. This will allow you more room when you pull back the front half of the wheel well liner. Next is the most important part to me. Be very gentle with the metal clips that hold the light bulb. Too much pressure and they will bend. I was rough with them and my bulb was loose upon installation so I had to bend them back to make the bulb secure. My total cost was 112 for two bulbs with two day shipping from amazon versus the 355 quoted by Charles barker for one bulb and intallation which they insisted the front bumper had to be removed. Sorry for the grammatical mistakes :-)
