Default 2004 Accord, Need help on replacing headlight bulbs

why is it so hard to the replace the bulbs in this car. its not my car but my friends and i was barely able to reach my hands in there to do any work. for these bulbs there's 3 screws that tightens the bulb adapter down. i was able to loosen the ones on the highbeams part and then u turn it counterclockwise and pull it out. but for the headlight bulbs i barely got space to put a screwdriver in there to loosen those screws. i only thing i saw was that to jack up the front end and go thru the wheel wall. why is it this hard to change the bulbs on this damn thing.

If it's like the 95 models the driver side headlight should be no problem... loosen the screws, pull the harness out, and replace the bulb. The passenger side should have a little resevoir b/t the battery and the headlight. Simply lift the resevoir out and set it aside and continue just like the driver side.
