In the aircraft industry a nacelle would have the engine in it. I believe other parts are called nacelles as well.

 Here is what it says in the Service Manual on how to replace the bulbs, it's all done from the outside. As James says all of a ten minute job.
REMOVAL - FRONT MARKER LAMP
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Insert a trim stick (2) at the rear edge of the front marker
lamp lens (1), gently depress forward and lift out from the
fascia.
3. Rotate the socket counterclockwise and remove the front
marker lamp bulb from the socket.
The rear one is the same.
REMOVAL
REAR MARKER LAMP
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Insert a trim stick (2) at the front edge of the rear marker
lamp lens (1), gently depress rearward and lift out from the
fascia.
3. Rotate the socket counterclockwise and remove the rear
marker lamp bulb from the socket.
The Manual is here on the forum and anyone who has not downloaded it to their computer would be well advised to do so and save time not stripping the car to replace a bulb.

Sometimes the most simple questions are ignored as everyone assumes someone else will answer it. Guess not in this case.
