Front or rear? front ones are from the back of the light units Dave, you can get to them from underneath the car or you can remove the whole indicator/fog unit from the bumper. for the rears just remove the plastic panels behind the lights (interior of the car) to gain access

They are a baynet fitting, quarter turn, you'll work it out when you get underneath

The details are also Here They are a quarter turn as Stuart says but they have a rubber O ring to seal them so they may need a 'wiggle' to remove them. Good idea to spray with silicone before replacing.

| Think you're getting mixed up with the indicator you release the clip and pull the bulb out, and definitely no lubricant/fingerprints near the bulb.
