Its a twist, I used a small compact mirror and some needle nosed pliers to give me the angle. I actually took the battery out on the driver side to make it easier.


Hope this helps.

When I changed to white bulbs in my 08, the battery side was tough and I have girl sized hands!

I hate that bulb, it's almost impossible to get your hand in there and twist, but it can be done. You just have to keep trying until you finally get it.

I agree with above I have big hands but still finally got them out without removiing battery. I put in some LED bulbs just after I cleared my headlights.

About the amber parking lamp bulb. I switched ALL the bulbs that were amber to white. Then changed out the foglamps to yellow. In the interior, I went with FoSheezy's idea and used Oznium's LED strip lights on both domelights.The added light output is several times better than stock.Changed the doorlights and the maplights over too. With the maplight mod done and LEDs installed, now the interior lights up when opening the doors like Toyota should have built it in the first place!:awais:
