How many Ford mechanics does it take to change a lightbulb?

I have had to change both headlight bulbs on my Ford Focus recently, and it is almost impossible. The nearside has the battery in the way, and you need tiny hands just to be able to reach the light bulb holder. The Fiesta is even worse, you have to remove the radiator grille. I have heard that the KA is worse still. It's not just Fords, it appears that most modern cars have the same problem. It looks like it is done so that you have to pay them to do it for you. This is should be the simplest of tasks that the motorist can do, yet it's another rip off!
