Most of them are held in with plastic tabs. You usually just remove the light (most of them twist out) and then snap the old one out and the new one in, then reinsert the light.

Not sure about the newer model but the 2000-2004.5 have a phillips head screw holding them in place. The screw is located beside the headlight and you get to it by looking straight down from under the hood. Loosen the screw and pull the entire turn signal assembly forward. Do not pull up or out. You will see why when you get it loose. Having broken the little plastic pieces on the back of mine (JB Weld repaired) it is now easy and quick to replace.

Loosen the screw
Don't turn the screw more than two turns. It does not need to come out.
