Default Re: Ever have one of those days............

I was replacing my peanut bulb in the top corner of the headlight and somehow managed to drop it right into the lens!!
I figured a quick headlight removal and shake out the bulb, but I was severely wrong!! Open up my laptop and seach headlight removal and the first line in the post instantly causes my stress level to increase 10 fold!
First line read "This is by no means a simple task"!!

So I tried to take a coat hanger with double sided tape and fish it out......took 45 mins and couldn't get it. So last resport I took some thick gauge speaker wire and wrapped in duct tape backwards with the sticky side out and managed to snake the wire in and drop it right on top of the bulb and managed to fish it out on my last attempt!

What a nightmare though.
