How do you replace the lowbeam bulb?

Got an error message last night about checking the lowbeam lights.

I started to try to get to it and got as far as taking the panel off from above the headlight and unscrewing the back end panel which looked to be about 3 inches in diameter. Saw something in there that could have been the projector base but wasn't sure.

Can someone tell me how to replace the lowbeam bulb?

Sorry, I have P1...not sure how replacing P2 bulbs work. Is your dealership somewhat close? Can you maybe call their service dept?

Actually, I was going to call them to see if they'd fix it under warranty. Someone else posted that it wasn't covered, but I thought I'd give it a shot. Car's only a year a half old and has a 4 year warranty.

Something else that has come up is that I see that both the low beam and high beam bulbs are the D1S Bi-Zenons, yet they appear to be a different color. Shouldn't they be the same color?
