As I recall, I removed the battery cover. Not a big deal.

I think all I had to do was remove the coolant reservoir. It also helps to have a short phillips screwdriver.

On the drivers side just the coolant reservoir comes out. It slides up off a bracket.

I swapped mine out for the OptiBlue bulbs about a month ago, for the driverside remove the battery cover and the coolent bottle as stated above...and it helps to have a phillips screwdriver attachment for your rachet set. It was impossible for me to get a screwdriver horizontally and get at the three scres which hold the bulb in place. You'll need a screwdriver which bends at the end to form the "L" shape or get the socket/rachet attachment. Took about 15-20mins

all you gotta do is remove the battery cover, unscrew the cap on the coolant resevoir tank (Be careful to not spill any coolant) and simply lift the tank out of it's socket.
