AGH! LED got into the housing
Was putting in my VLEDS parking lights and the little jerk on the passenger side fell into the headlight housing! And not the reflector section, but the INSIDE of the headlight. Tried reaching it with some tweezers, but I just couldn't get the right angle. What can I do besides take out the whole headlight?

What about the possibility of just going through my day normally, and checking if it's shifted at all at the end of each day? It's not gonna kill me to have a little $5 led in there. And it wouldn't melt to the housing or anything, would it? Then if it shifts back into a sweet spot, I can try and grab it with some tweezers, or the magnet on the coathanger thing.

Welp, I went to Autozone and got some tools. Found a magnetic tool, plus the first tool Betty pictured. I really wish I had the first one last night, cuz the bulb was inside the relfector at the time and would have been cake to get out with that tool.
Unfortunately, the magnetic tool was too fat to fit, so I'm gonna have to get the tool Betty posted and wait.
I'll just have to take out the other one for now so it doesn't look stupid. Man, it's so easy to reach the headlight through the top on the driver's side, but the water bottle tube blocks the passenger side from being so easy. The lamest part if that I have to take off the wheel every time I want to fix this issue.
There isn't a way to move the water bottle tube, is there?
