The back is the easiest, will start with it.
There is a felt panel covering the back of the taillamps. Remove it for access to the bulbs. Identify which one needs to come out and it's just a twist to the left and the harness comes out and you can remove the bulb. Insert it back, twist to the right and you're golden.
The headlamp bulbs are much tougher, but not impossible.
First, it has a plastic cover over it that is held in place by a strip of metal that you have to pry down. A screwdriver makes this much easier. Be gentle. Once it is down, you can remove the plastic cover.
The wiring harness simply unplugs, just pull straight out.
Now, the fun part is the little metal bracket holding the bulb in. Imagine a safety pin laying horizontal. You have to push the rod in, move slightly up, then it will come out. The little metal rod is the same way on the bulb. On the end of it, just push in, lift it slightly out of the catch, and release. The bulb will come right out.
The hard part of all this is the tight space. The battery makes it harder to access. I got quite frustrated, but I have big hands. Just be patient and you will see how easy it is. Take it to a dealer or auto shop? Absolutely not. It is really easy once you get the hang of it.
Good luck.
