Parking Light Change 2008 S63 AMG

What's up guys. First and foremost, solid forum.

I have a 2008 S63 and i'm having trouble replacing the parking lights. I understand that i have to remove the washer fluid reservoir on the driverside and go in through Cover #1 (#1 according to the manual).

On other Benz models, I saw some useful tips on here to remove the main headlamp bulb first to access the parking light by "feel." I also saw that somebody went through the wheelwell for the passenger side.

Before i twist the ballast or unclip anything, whats the best way to tackle this problem? Thanks for your time fellas

Thanks man.
It is the single bulb right under the amber turn signal bulb all within the headlight housing.

It worked perfectly. Gotta go through the wheelwell, use the airmatic, crank the wheels and have some long needlenose pliers. Thanks again!
