Exclamation replacing Low Beam 05 S60 AWD Passenger side

Okay I am trying to replace the low beam headlights in my 05 S60 AWD. My main concern is the passenger side (right). There is no way that you can get around the ECU box. I already tried removing front fascia from the car however this 05 does not seem to be like others. I cannot get to the bolt holding the light to the fender lower side. I was going to push the headlight out so I could get my hand into the bulb area to remove it. This is absolutely crazy that a car company is allowed to do this. Must have been a ford Idea. I keep reading about everyone replacing the drivers side but not the passengers side. Some help would be appreciated.

the easiest way would be to remove the ecm and tcm. if you dont have the tool you will just have to struggle with the limited space. or you can continue to take the headlight out.

It can be done without removing the ECM, it isn't easy though. Or remove the headlight assembly. You have to remove the plastic bracket on the fender side to get to the bolt holding the headlight.
