I even tried using a pick tool and a trim clip removal took with my fingers and I literally could not put a bulb in. Is there a tool that you recommend to install this bulb with? My hands are average size but I honestly can't see how anyone installs these with normal human hands.
No tool that I've heard of but you'll have better luck getting someone with smaller hands to help you out like a girlfriend, wife, small child etc. I had my girlfriend do it I got my hand stuck in there and almost ripped the wiring out.
Haha, that sounds like me!
