Default the tiny especially designed for Asian hands.

Does anybody have had any problems with changing the light bulbs?

I've recently changed the head light (8500K), park and plate bulbs for the ultra blue T15 LED. I could not stick my hand in and had any room to rotate. Well, to put the park lights was the easiest one. I had to take my car to the dealer to instal the head light bulbs because it was so tight. I still have marks on my right hand.
Did anybody have similar issues? No, I don't have bigger than average hands and fingers.
Thanks!

Tell me about it man! All I've changed so far were the license plate bulbs to LED's and my hands were pretty messed up.

Wow. To remove the front bumper to just replace the bulbs. That is awesome. I guess you have all free time in the world to do it.

I changed all the bulbs on my gf's xd, the headlights weren't too bad and I have large hands, just took finesse and some swearing lol. Getting the retention spring off of the passenger side was the worst part, the driver side popped right off. The license plate lights were horrible though, those openings are way too small and I was almost ready to pull off the whole hatch cover to get it done, but managed it finally.
