take off the bumper and you see like 2 more screws on the bottum. one near the fender and one in the middle around the supports are. just look around the head light and youll see after you take the bumper off.

edit.unscrew the bumper by lookin in the inner fender where your wheels are 1 on each side then take of the screw or plastic bolts thats on the grill and on the bumper and thats it. real simple. 8-15 min easy.

well you dont have to, but itd be alot easier if you took the bumper off, if you want to, there are to 10mm bolts on the underside of the bumper, then there is a screw on each side where the bumper meets the fender, then just take all those plastic screws off the hold the grill on, then there are 4 10mm bolts for each headlight 2 on top, one behind, and one towards the middle of the car where to grill is, you know what i mean? then just unhook that metal piece tha holds the bulb in. and then twist the turn signal bulb and it comes out. did i forget anything?

should take 15-20 mins....thats how long it took me, not even
