How do you change Front Grill Parking lights?

As the title says... what's the best way to swap out the amber turn signal / parking lights in the front grill.

How do I access this location??? I'm guessing through the fender well or is there a way to get there from the top. Haven't really looked yet so saving some time by asking.



...and yes I searched... a little bit.

You can just unscrew them after piping the hood if that what you're asking...

like they said "pop" the hood.
the passenger side shown in pic, is about 2 inches from the rad.
you can see the red o-ring seal in the pic.
My drivers side is under my CAI cover so I cant take a pic

Oh dang... their right there. Thanks for taking time to provide a pic. For some reason I was thinking lower and it was going to be a PITA.
