Default Re: HOW TO replace headlight bulb. Pictured step by step instructions

I tried on the easiest headlight....and now the retainer clip is wedged back in housing...can see in front lens against a high beam fish eye. Ordered a hemostat to hopefully retrieve...and a spare Saab retaining clip. I'm a bit gun shy of screwing up something worse. My lights are all working but I occasionally get the indicator on the dash...so I'm going to replace all bulbs. I really don't see how anyone has the dexterity and clearance to replace the bulbs with headlamps in place.
When changing the bulbs you do not need fingers like Polish sausages that's for sure.
