Need Shortcut in replacing passenger headlight SL500

[Bullrunner]

Hi Folks,

My first post here. Always find these forums helpful. I'm trying to do two things.

1) Simply change the bulb in the headlight on the passenger side of a 2001 SL500. THe driver's side is a snap. the Passenger side you have the wiper fluid housing in the way. Any shortcut to get to the buld ? And what is the procedure for that?

2) THe Lenz has a tiny bee bee hole that is causing the condensation thus the light went out. THe price to replace the entire housing is expensive. You think some silicone will work?

THanks so much
