I had a lot of trouble getting to the two side bulbs when I replaced them recently. Try getting some pliers, etc. to twist the bulb holder thing. They need to make them easier to unhook. I ended up breaking minor plastic pieces off of two driver's side harnesses with a flathead because the damn things wouldn't unhook and there was almost literally no room. I read some threads that recommended to just unhook the parking light bulbs for various reasons so that's how mine are now.

Many people have replaced the stock bulb [168] with white LEDs to match their HIDs. I'm one of them.![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Unless you have extremely small hands, it is probably best/easiest if you just remove the headlight housing and work on it to avoid breaking things from working in an awkward position.
