I just did this in less than 5 minutes. First turn off the car and put the light switch to OFF. Looks like there is no access to the parking lamp but you can really do it. I used the long pliers (I wrapped the tips with electric tape, this way I didn't scratch any plastic or metal parts). If you do not want to scratch yourself I recommend wearing some glove.

When you put the pliers into little space you may see it through the hole on the top of the headlamp. It is important to watch the plastic bulb holder. On the beginning you will see on it little clip, connecting the wires to the holder (with the letters and numbers). Grab the plastic and turn counter clockwise only ¼ of the turn (90 degrees). Note that after turn you will see the plastic holder as clear rectangular (no clip, no marks on it). Now you can gently pull it out.

If you change it first time you have to work a little to pull it out, because of o-ring which is sealing the hole. When you get it out, changing the bulb is easy and wire is long enough to take it out. After bulb change I checked it out turning the car and lights on. Observe the shape of plastic holder. All sides are different. One is with the clip mentioned above, one is "our clear" rectangle, another is rounded and last one is with the marks and numbers but without any clip. You have to put it back holding it in the pliers with "clear" rectangle upward and you will have no problem. Put it as deep as you will see the bulb inside the head lamp (see how it looks in opposite lamp) and turn clockwise ¼ of turn to secure. Tada!!...done.
