Default changing headlight bulbs!!

i know there is a complete "how to" with pictures, etc in the tech section, but i had the pleasure??? of having to replace a burned out bulb last night (and therefore in order to equalize both the longevity and the color, i changed them both). this act is not for the faint of heart, lol. sure the process is extremely simple, and should actually take no more than a total of 5 minutes total (assuming you have the headlight assemblies off the car and you are working on a bench, lol.. now, i am not a particularly stout guy and i certainly don't have sausage fingers, but this entails,a special degree of contortion-ism, lol all told about an hour of squeezing, bending and scraping/cutting of the hands and fingers. lol. i know others have performed this surgery over time, but i just wanted to vent a bit and curse the engineers who designed this assembly and placed all types of obstacles in the way, lol.
