Replacing Light bulbs

You know when one bulb blows a few more are going to go within a few weeks. Well this is the case with me anyway. Now I don't have a problem with this as their life span should be similar.
What really annoys me is the time it now takes to replace one of those bulbs. I am pretty sure that the so called engineer or designer that designed the lamps and their positioning has never had the pleasure of replacing a bulb once the units are on the car.
Now this is not a new problem, I owned a Fiat Punto and you needed the wheel brace to open a bolt when you wanted to replace a brake light bulb. I think it took about a half an hour to replace a brake light bulb on a Fiesta. This was a major problem when you had someone doing a driving test and the bulb blowing just before the test. It is a bigger problem now as the driving tester won't take someone out on a test if the two side brake lights are not working.
Anyway the reason for my gripe tonight is I am just after replacing a headlight bulb on a Peugeot 308 passenger side. It was cold and freezing and you would need to be double jointed to get at the bulb. No right view so you can't see what you are doing, and then trying to get the clips off. When it is finally removed you now have to figure out where the groove is for the bulb to sit back into. You might say why didn't you look at it as it was coming out, that would have been a good idea. The only problem with this; you can't look and contort yourself at the same time. Again about a half hour's work.
Ok so maybe I am getting too old for this or my hands are not as flexible as they used to be, but I am still of the opinion that the design is what the problem is.
Let me know if you agree or disagree, I will be interested in your opinion.
