Replace HID Bulb - Main Headlight

Hi guys,

Just wondering if it's a big job to change the D1S bulb in the 2009 C63. I had a Saab 9-3 and I had to remove the whole !@#$ bumper to get the head light out. No way my hand or anyone else's could fit behind the Headlight assembly.

Is it just twist and pull or is there no room to get your hand back there?

I see that the video is gone. Is there anyway I can see it?

Thanks
