Default Removing Headlight lense / bucket from XKR

I have an XKR with a cracked drivers side headlight lense. I have a factory replacement. I am looking at the new one and the location of the clips to remove the old one, but how am I supposed to get to most of those? I cant reach them from anywhere! Any help would be appreciated!

This thread should help you remove the headlight assembly:

Once it is out, gently pry up the tabs separating the lens housing and the body of the headlight (I think there are 2 or 3 on each long side and one on each end). The lens and the housing will then separate, it will be helped automatically by the rubber gasket pressure. Replace the lens with the new gasket it comes with.
