use needle nose pliers and grab it and just pull it out :D

wait, you're talking about the type 194/168 bulb right?

Yeah it's the same on both headlights.

My driver one took was a little pain to get out, but it came free.
Just make sure that you're pulling straight back & not an angle too

YES, i finally got it out.
using needle pliers.
but MAN...it took long long time.
it was stuck , which is not meant to be.
i had to remove the black thing (dunno what it is) so it gives me more free...
now i have aching hands...BUT very happy, it finally came loose.

Have you tried putting in LED parking lights?
