    Bah, take it in to a Nissan service department. 3 year 36000 mile warranty. The headlamp bulb shouldn't be going out already.

    Go up through the wheel well - thats how I had to do it on my 07 - cut the wheel all the way to the outside, pop the clips holding the plastic fender guard, reach up twist the clip out - carefully replace bulb, reinset clips etc.. - then have the bulb blow in 2 days cause there was a crack in the headlight assembly and moisture got in...
    Or better yet take it to Nissan

    by FAR the best advice. Less than 10 minutes, and I stopped to have a beer in between. I only removed the 4 front most clips and 2 screws under the bumper and it was a piece of cake.

    Now we'll see if I have to do it again in 2 days
