If you turn the wheel you can access thru the wheel well. There is a panel that you can open to access. Its in your car manual.

It is a PITA to change those bulbs. I can't remember which but I think it was the drivers side that was harder then the other due to less wire slack. Not looking forward to doing it again.

Are there wires that are accessible from behind the housing to the turn signal bulbs? The reason I ask is that Porsche headlights are fully enclosed units that have one plug at the base of the unit that made all the power connections.

I'd like to replace the amber bulbs with amber LEDs which would require some sort of capacitor to eliminate the "fast blink"
