I did it by hand, it's really tight and you'll have to do it by touch because you won't be able to see anything. But once you get the method, it's pretty easy. Let me try my best to explain how to do it:

1) Remove the socket from the bulb (still in the light)
2) There is a hook over the bulb (which is still in the light), just unhook. The hook does not come out and is shaped like a "u" to hold the bulb in place.
3) once unhooked, the light bulb comes straight out.
4) when you replace the bulb, look at the pattern around the bulb to make sure it is re-placed properly.
5) Reverse and enjoy!
