You have to do it from underneath. Remove all of part of the belly pan to get to it.

Now that I think about it, it's quite easy on the coupe, not so easy on the sedan.

You just have to remove some of the pins holding the belly pan right under the light. Pull out the center piece of the pin first, then the rest will come out. Bend the belly pan down once you have enough pins out to get your hand in there. It shouldn't be too difficult.
