Not easy no matter how you do it. I did use a mirror and had a couple of brewskies after to ease the pain.

Yep! I did the same for the passenger side. Also used a mirror to see the bulb and clip. However, a needle nose pliers worked much better than a brewskie to disconnect the clip and remove the bulb. Not so hard if you take your time and don't drop anything. Now, I hope the Sylvania Ultras last longer than some of the reports I have seen?
