Tighter fit than the driver's side but basically the same way. Except remove the plastic shield back of the air intake plastic tube and the tube it self. The shield pulls straight up. The outer part of the plastic air intake tube pulls straight up too (give it a yank and it'll pull off) then pull the inner end out towards the passenger side. Undo the headlight back cover by unclipping the 2 wire hold down and remove the cover (to gain more clearance) Reach down behind the headlight with your right hand and reach right (passenger side) to grab the grey long plastic tab. Turn it counter clockwise till it clicks, then pull it straight out, the bulb comes with it.

I'm sorry bout the crappy picture. It's already dark after work. The dark void at the lower part of the picture is the area that you have to reach down. (you won't have all those wires and plugs in the way, those are my add on HIDs, also after you remove the cover you'll have more room.) The little white line near the bottom left of my red flash light is the end of the grey tab that you have to turn. It's pretty tight reach but I could reach it. My hand is not very big.
