If you mean the driving/fog light then I have done this. What you have to do is pop out the black cover piece that surrounds the glass of the light. You can then reach around to get at the bulb (i believe it is a 9005 or 9006), but I found it even easier to remove the two screws that you can see to get the whole assemebly out. Be careful not to turn the screw that adjusts the pointing of the light, which is different and not even a real screw if you really look at it.

I think that there is a description in the manual also.

Brian, I tried to remove the black plastic cover from around the light but it would not come off easily. An I doing it right? Is there a technique involved. I read the manual and it is just as a matter of fact but I'm afraid I might break it.

Thanks
