Lost my low beam a long way from home, had a spare in the tool kit but I couldn't get the old bulb out. Shouldn't the blub just pull out once the clip, connector, etc is out of the way? Having my gorilla hands in the tight space isn't much help.
 
Right Hand needs special tool

Getting the right hand low beam light is a chore. Getting it back it is a leading cause of high blood pressure and foul language. I took a piece of 14G house wire and crimped a F Spade connector on it. This can be used to guide the bulb into the correct position then use a pair of needle nose (long length) to put the clip and plug back in place.
