wtf is an inner fender, if someone posts aquestion on here it is probably bcuz they are NOT mechanics
I know this is a very old post, however, if somebody new comes across this, my input WILL BE MUCH MORE HELPFUL, also just to put it out there....I'm a female and I can tell ya that I'm 99% positive, anyone who reads this will agree with my answer (as long as I explain it w/o confusion, I tend to do that!). That being said, FIRST you DO NOT need to remove anything and it will take under 5mins. So say it's the passenger front blinker bulb, you'll want to turn your wheel all the way to the left so that you have more room because you will need to go up inside the side fender well. Getting down next to your tire, with a FLASHLIGHT (PREFERABLY,) go up into the side fender well, going upwards at an angle towards the front, the blinker bulb will be pretty much in your path from where you are (may be a tight squeeze, possibly needing to squeeze a smidge to the left once near where the socket is) ALSO, its helpful to figure out where exactly the placement of each bulb by putting lights on or blinker on Using the side that works (obviously) and follow it back from the other side. It can be easy to get the wrong one, thinking it would be the one on the side where the blinker bulb would be, BUT there ARE 2 that are accessible thru the front side fender well, and they sit right by each other. However the blinker bulb is the one that is closer to the front and up higher with the other one being behind it and a little lower. But where theres a bulb, You will see the wires, etc. to the lightbulb socket which the socket you'll want to turn that counter clockwise to release it to access the bulb and when done changing just place the bulb socket back into the hole (should pop right back into hole, IF NOT & NOT straight and not locking back in place when turned, take back out, making sure the tabs around light socket slide into the indents around the light socket hole, so once its turned clockwise it'll lock into place after..As far as I know its 2 bulbs from the fender well you can get to, could be other but to access the other bulbs, lift your hood and go down inside the front bumper by the headlights. And last, IF new blinker bulb works then immediately after does not, before anything else, turn that blinker on then go up into fender well and wiggle/bend wires attached to socket, if it starts to blink then the wires are loose. Could be due to being old or something else if that doesn't fix it then look up the couple other things it can be and how to check. I wrote too much ALREADY! LOL

SOURCE: change front turn signal
You have to remove the signal unit from the bumper using a normal " + " screwdriver then twist the bulb holder at the back of the sinal unit.
