Look for the DIY on the angel eye mod. Remove two top black screws with Torx head, loosen two bottom grey screws with hex head (do not remove). The bottom screws are almost hidden, so search with a flash light. Slide out headlamp housing a little (do not need to come all the way out). Loosen signal lamp base (looks like a fin). Replace turn signal lamp.

You don't need to do all this......


Just look for the really long piece of plastic sticking out the rear side of the headlight when you pop the hood...lefty-loosie, take it out and replace the bulb. A little iffy to turn, but very possible.
