Headlights (ugh)

Hello---

I'm trying to take my headlight bulbs out so I know what kind to replace them with (they're dark blue-ish bulbs), but I can't for the life of me get the bulb out! I've removed the bolt, and the tree connectors, but I can't get the fender lining pulled back far enough to get my hand in there to take it out.... there seems to be a lip on the metal part of the fender (on the top) holding the lining in, and I can't get it out of that lip. I've looked on here for pictures and such but I can't seem to find a solution. Please help!

Headlights "pita"

Hey Andy,

Although it is possible to change the Head Light Bulbs with just Turning the Front Wheels Inward, I Found that it is Easiest with the Wheel Removed and then the Fenderwell Liner Can Be Pulled Back Far Enough to Access the Bulbs! You are Probably Best to Purchase the H13's in Pairs So they Match and then Change Out Both as Most Bulbs I Have Found Do Not Have Manufacturing Names or Part Numbers on Them !
