theres two little tabs you pull after you take off a two screw plastic guard thingy.

pull the tabs up firmly and the head light should give you enough room to mess with it...

the light bulb is inside the headlight. You need to lift those tabs like Gil said...slide out the headlight, then from the back of the headlight, twist and take out the light bulb.
