Well according to my mitchell manuel you don't have to.here is the procedure.
1. open the hood.
2.Remove the push-pin retainer's that secure the top of the upper facia and grill assembly to the upper tie bar to allow the upper facia and grill assembly to flex forward.
3. remove ther bolt and push-pin retainer that secures the top of the headlight assembly to the upper tie bar.
4. Gently pull the upper facia and grill assembly forward to access the bolt on the inboard side of the headlight assembly
5. Pull the headlamp assembly straight out to disengage the the snap in retainer at the lower outboard back surface of the assembly. Turn the assembly so that the inboard assembly clears the front facia.
6. pull the assembly out and away from the veh.From there you'll be able to access bulbs.
be careful not to touch the bulb with fingers or oil in skin will blow bulb.
Good luck.

That's a good tip, but for a permanent repair, get the updated light sockets from the dealership.

Change the front turn signal bulb on Cadillac SRX

I have found a short cut for changing the front turn signal bulb
  1. Remove the inner fender well cover and then you can remove the light assemble from underneth and replace the bulb.
  2. The cover is attached with a bunch of push on body clips, pry the button up with a screwdriver and pull out fastner.
  3. Then there are two screws holding the light assembly on the bottom and inner side, it clips into the bumper on the outter side. From there it's pretty simple.
  4. FYI the GE replacement cross reference is wrong it's a Sylvania 3757A LL bulb.

How do u change the front signal bulbs on SRX 2004 with out taking the whole car apart???

Remove the bottom plastic cover along the front grills by pulling the push pins which hold them in place. You can slide the cover out . Remove the plastic cover inside the wheel which is also held by push pins.

When both the covers are out you ca use an 9/32'' wrench to remove the two bolts which hold the whole lamp assembly.You then need a torx driver to remove the six torx screws in the light assembly and you can replace the bulb.

Replacing front turn signal bulb on 2006 Cadillac SRX

You must take the front wheel off, then remove the inner front fender panels (2), they are fastened with plastic pushbuttons. this exposses the light housings for the turn and fog lambs. This takes about an hour, but saves you alot of money.
