Drivers side headlight bulb

Have any of you had to change the bulb in your headlights yet?The passenger side is relatively easy but to get at the drivers side in my '03 base vibe I had to disconnect the battery and move it to be able to get it in! That doesn't seem like a well thought out design.

You can get to it without taking out the battery, but it is a real pain! It's a tight fit, but I did it.

It's a pain, but doable if you've got tiny hands... I'm lucky in that regard, swapped out several bulbs without having to yank the battery.It's a bit tricky, so if it's giving you trouble, I'd say yank the battery. Doesn't take long to do...Last time I had a bulb burn out on that side, on the way to the dealer for an oil change... I just bought another bulb and made the dealer put one in.
