I know this topic has been covered to death on a number of the forums here, but having spent most of yesterday scrapping the skin off my knuckles trying to get to the dipped headlight bulb in the halogen projector headlight assembly on the side of the fuel filter (right looking from inside the car) on my Roomster 1.6 TDI, I was wondering if anyone had successfully used bent nose pliers to do this change? It looks like it might work, but don't have such pliers so wondering if it is worth investing in getting some to make life easier with bulb changes on that side. I really struggled this time to get the bulb fitting out and then locked-in again and to top off everything the rubber covering cap fell down into the engine bay when I was trying to put it back on.

I gave up trying to change my dipped bulbs (for nightbreakers) If you manage please post the method. Thanks
