Answer
unlike other cars, the 350z requires you to replace the bulbs from within the wheel well. due to the confines of the engine bay, you must first remove the front wheel on the side you're working on and remove the inner fender held by a series of plastic tabs and screws just to access the back of the headlamp. once these steps are completed, only a round grey sealed cap stands between you and the bulbs. it's a tight fit to get the bulbs removed, but a little patience will render your objective complete.

removed 1/2 the bumper and both headlights, reinstalled in under 35 mins. (done it about 30+ times) No need to take off the wheel, you just need to turn them, but I suppose there are multiple ways to tackle it.
