My diagram FTW!
Edit: the blue stuff is the bulb (dark blue) and the adapter (lighter blue).
The red clip (not actually red on the car) is what is holding the bulb in. As you can see, it squeezes the top of the bulb and the bottom of the bulb up against the headlight housing, and then on the bottom loops around to be hooked on a little metal piece (the black thing).
There is a little curved part on the clip (red) that you can feel with your finger. Press it in towards the headlight (if you are standing in front of the car, pull it toward you) and then push it down (toward the ground) slightly to get it off of the little hook thing. It will then hinge away, allowing you to get the bulb out. Remember to take the black adapter piece (light blue in the diagram) off of the bulb before you throw the old on out, because you'll need the adapter on the new bulb.
The diagram may or may not be a mirror image of what is actually there.
There really isn't a need to remove things to get at the bulbs. It's really tight near the washer fluid reservoir but once you get the black rubber cap out of the way and unplug the electrical connecter you just have to feel in there to unhook the clip and then the bulb is out. Be very careful on that side when putting the bulb back in, it is really easy to come in contact with something and contaminate the bulb.
