Glad I could help!

 

owner's manual has the recommended procedure. Seems like a hassle but easy

 

two bulbs replaced.
Remove the wheel-house fender(you dont have to completely take it off car; just unscrew the bottom portion only and pull it back to reveal a cap/cup that houses the bulb. you really dont have to remove the tires but it will give you a better straight path of vision if you do; i raised the front end until ties were off the ground and turned the wheels to the left for the left bulb (if you turn it to the right it will block one of the screws holding the liner) once you pull back the liner you will see a grey plastic cap which you 1/4 turn (directions on cap) and pull out(its held with a rubber seal.) it think the cup has a clocking; take note of it. The bulb is behind this cap. twist and pull connector off bulb. the bulb is held in place with two spring clips; squeeze the clips to release the bulb. sorry i dont have pictures. Hope this helps someone.
