Seek and you shall find .

Headlight bulb removal:

Tail light bulb removal:
http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/t300488.html

They're both incredibly easy jobs, just be sure to purchase the right bulbs, and never touch the headlight bulbs with your bare fingers.

to get to the tail lights, there are 2 10mm bolts on the outside after you've raised the trunk lid and 1 10mm bolt on the inside towards the corners of the trunk. Once you've removed those 10mm bolts, you can slide the entire rear tail light assembly towards you. You don't need to disconnect the tail light wire in order to change the bulbs. You would have to disconnect the harness if you wanted to change the factory tail lights to altezza tail lights from ebay.

these are my altezza tail lights:



the brake and stop lights use the 1157 bulbs while the rear turn signal and backup lights use the 1156 bulbs.
