I had to pull off the front bumper to replace the ballast and high and low beam bulbs. that's the only way that I know. I had to do this 2 times when the other bulb went out.If the bulb you replace does not work then it might be the ballast.

The stock rating for OEM bulbs is 4300K or Kelvin. You can "upgrade" to more intense bulbs 6000K, 8000K, 10000K. But from my understanding they will not put out as much usable light. Stay around 5-6K. OEM replacements are 100 dollars each from oemacuraparts.com The OEMS are made by Osram. They are a D2R style or format.
