On a BMW318 I had, I needed to change a headlamp bulb and the access was via the wheel arch. So first it's a job of brushing off the dried mud...
A Honda Accord I also had (nice car!), changing the bulbs was under the bonnet, behind the lamp. Unfortunately to do it you needed the slight hands and slim fingers of a Japanese geisha girl, and even more unfortunately she didn't come with the car...
But difficult access isn't new. I had to change the brake master cylinder on another car, a Morris Minor, and to do this you needed to strip the RH front suspension. The bolts were easy enough to undo, but couldn't be withdrawn because the torsion bar was in the way. To be fair, in most other aspects it was dead easy to work on.
