just use a cotter pin puller or angled needlenose pliers to pull the clips..
the "pod" falls out
replace the bulb
put it back together.

Step 1
open the hood

step 2
pull the wonder clips - there are two

note the shape of the pliers..these are vacuum hose pliers if you go looking for them..

step 3
remove these two screws and flip the marker/turn assembly out of the way (change those bulbs while you're in there.. 3157NA and 194NA)
note: use a magnetic screwdriver or you'll be saying bad words.

now, swing the pod out and down
turn the retainer ring to the right and slide it back up the wiring harness

 

[JLDickmon]

pull the bulb out and press the lock clip down on the pigtail and throw the old bulb in the trash

this is why I had you pull the pod..
it's too tight between the header panel and the battery to get two hands in there...

 

[JLDickmon]

put the new bulb in now, and put the retainter ring on it now
DON'T TOUCH THE GLASS PART OF THE BULB!!!

 

[JLDickmon]

put it back together, and don't forget to plug the wiring pigtail back in...
