Changing the SIde marker bulb

I own a 99 model so I dont have the Side mirror blinkers, can anyone tell me where how I go about changing the bulb for the side marker? I checked the engine bay and there seems to be a lot of things in the way. ALso what kind of bulb is it? 164/198?

Not too sure what your post means BUT, to replace globe in side indicator just push assy to front and lift out from rear on the outside of vehicle.

Open the door

If it wont come out by sliding it forward, open the access door in the fender well in front of the tire.
The bulb is in there on the back of the light.
