Right side front turn signal bulb change
 
What is the easiest way to change the front passenger side turn signal bulb with the yellow reflector that is right next to the main head lights?

The driver's side is easily doable but the passenger side is so tight with room that I cannot fit my hand in there. Do I have to take the whole light assy out or remove the washer fluid reservoir or right front wheel and inside fender and go underneath?

Any suggestions?

Just take out the washer fluid reservoir and change it that way. That is what you have to do to change the headlight. It is easy, one bolt up top then pull-up set to the side. Just be careful not to spill it.

Good Luck

Make sure you use tape or a magnetic driver to loosen the hex nuts behind the assembly so you don't drop them into the undercarriage.
