E60 2008 - Changing front headlight bulbs

Lads, any advice welcome.

Is it only me or are front headlight bulbs the hardest thing to get in at to change out on the 5 series? not that I have big hands, but you would want very small palms to be able to change a bulb without a few bad words along the way. Seems like they don't leave enough space to change such a simple item.

Eg, on a newish Volvo S40, there is a release pin holding in the entire front light housing, remove the pin, and light unit comes out in your hand, replace the bulb hassle free, replace the from headlight unit, insert pin, job done, drive away.
