I realize that the owner's manual already has instructions on how to replace these bulbs, which essentially tells you to push the tab to remove the entire lens/bulb unit...but it doesn't tell you how to release the tab. Well, I had a lot of trouble releasing the tab in from inside the hood. However, after a bit of wiggling and analyzing, I found a much easier way to release the tab. Go from the wheel well and slide a flat head screwdriver in to release the tab. Works like a charm. Maybe I'm just a noob and some of you already knew this, but I can't be only one, right?
Also, the lens is very shallow. Do not use "tall" bulbs or else it'll touch the lens, or even worse, not fit.
Here are some pictures to show you what I mean by releasing the tab from the wheel well, and what kind of LED bulbs I used.
