Headlight Bulb Replacement 1998 Altima

When replacing a headlight bulb on a 1998 Altima, does anyone know how to unlock the spring that holds the bulb in place? Where does the spring have to be unlocked from? Do you push the spring from the top, or from the sides?

They sure don't give you much room to work with, it's VERY difficult to get your hands in there!

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

The retaining clip should pop off once you push the spring's long edges off to the side away from the light harness. Once loose, it should swing freely (or removed entirely) letting you pull the light out. The o-ring on the light makes it a tight fit so be careful when you replace.
