You should be able to get to them in the rear through the trunk, peal back the carpet lining, and if you know how to change the brake lights, they should be right next to the brake lights. peal back where the trunk is, the carpet. or look at the owners manuel and it will tell you how to. as for the font. you might have to open the hood and get it from in there, or go under the car and put your hands up under the bumper. let me know if this helps. and if you need more explaining, reply back.

Thanks Lee,
The back was changed using your advice.
The front was a little of a trick, after using your advice, I came to the conclusion the only other option was to take the headlight out. Well that was the key to the problem.the markers are now all replaced,and ready for inspection.
Thanks a bunch for your help.
