Default New S 3.0 Owner needs help with headlamp

Hi,

While changing driver side amber turn signal bulb, I accidentally dropped the old bulb into the headlamp assembly (which fell to the bottom and is still visible). After some looking and reading, I came to the conclusion that the bumper and grille and a few other items must be R&R'd to get the headlamp out.

I tried a goose neck grabber and a few other things, without success. Please tell me that someone has an easier solution!

This is my first post, so any advice on not following protocol or providing other info is much appreciated. I feel like I'm applying for a CIA position

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks much,

Boog in Tucson

Thanks for the welcome. Which rules have I criticized? Did not intentionally and was not aware that I criticized anything.
