Yuck! Is it easier to pull the air cleaner instead? On the 124, it's a tight fit, but you can remove the rear cover from the Euro healights, and change the bulb with the air cleaner in place. And the 124 is smaller and more compact than the 126. It seems bizarre that MB would design something that requires headlight removal to change the bulb. Any other 126 owners have the same problem...?
