Default How do I fix this...? Unique Headlight problem

So I'm not sure how this happened. But I came outside today to find this. How can I get the stupid thing out?

Same problem here... I just went out and bought 2 new headlights - my adjusters were broken anyway and I had just "fixed" them using the Brutal method... 2 birds, one stone...

Now if I can get some help to install them I will be back in business!

offroadking, I believe vance580 was able to fish out a bulb for a fellow members S Type without having to remove the headlamp. Try to PM him and see if he can explain. Vance580 doesn't come here as much but he does return all questions asked by PM.
