Front turn signal
How the heck do you get to the turn signal light bulb on the front of a c5?

A lot of people will tell you to take the headlight out or jack the car up and take the bottom apart but that is just too much work and completely unnecessary. Here's the easiest way unless you have the hands of a giant.

FYI, smaller hands and arms make this much easier........ask the wife or gf to try it.

or just raise your headlight and reach down..you may have to remove the hood adjuster real quick to get your wrist in there but it's about the same as doing it through the brake vent opening accept you can see..

I go through the bottom access panel, but like is mentioned above, there are other ways that may be quicker.
