Having trouble installing the Driver side HID

[devilmagic]

So, I have no problem installing both low/high beam of the passenger side. but got stuck on the Low beam of the driver side. i did NOT take the Bumper nor my wheel.. i simply turn my wheel for a well open area at the tire well and unscrew the 3 bottom bumper screws and the tap in the tire well.. but my hand just cant squeeze in for the install on the bulb.. the fuse + battery is on the way (right behind the bulb seem like). anyone got tips on what can i do to complete the job ? or should i just take the bumper off like i have been doing before (yes, i got lazy this time around with HID install.. try to do it without bumper removal.. its freezing out and i just want to do it the *quick way*) .. Thanks! and hope everyone have a Safe and Happy New Year!

Go through the wheel well. Don't try taking short cuts with your car =]

just use the jack, you're only propping up one side, you don't need 2 jack stands. just jack up the front driver side, take of the wheel with the tire iron and you should be able to get the wheel well peeled back enough to get at the bulb. only other tool you need is a philips head screw driver, i'm sure you could borrow that from someone if you don't have one.
