Default LED Side Marker's fitting

Hi all,
I've been going through changing my lights or late, having replaced the side marker (city) lights for White LED's, the side indicator amber eggs for SilverSide's and so on, the last hurdle which is causing me frustration is the inner marker lights.

I'm trying to replace these with White LED's too to match the outer marker lights but the room for maneuver is so tight, i'm struggling to ge the current bulb out!!!

Anyone done this and any tips on how to go about changing these bulbs?

You need to remove the headlight, 2 easy bolts on top and one inside the fender. You should now have plenty of room to get at that bulb (I did). Buy a short bulb.

Thanks, I removed the headlight, disconnected the water / electric connectors, then went in at the side, unscrewed the cap, this lets me at the side marker, but I must be missing something.
