You should be able to access if from under the hood, behind the headlight assembly. Check to see if you can find the light socket. It should unscrew out.

NOTE: Don't touch the glass part of the new bulb. The oils from your skin will cause the bulb to create a hot spot and it will burn out faster.

LEt me know if you find the socket.
