Default A6 (C6) headlights removal

I tried to upgrade the stock bulbs with H7 low beam Philips X-Treme power and H1 Philips Vision Plus high beam bulbs, however I found it so difficult to access the back of the headlights housings.In order to get to the bulbs I had to remove the filter, but even then the headlight housing opening at the back is really small.
I managed to swap the H7 low beam lights, but when attempted to do H1 high beam bulb I lost the clip that holds it in place and was unable to retrieve it from the hausing.Now the car is reporting it as fault in the display. My conlusion is that
one has to remove the headlight units completely in order to replace the bulbs, can someone please confirm if this is the case?
Or does anyone have step by step instructions on how to replace bulbs / remove headlights?

Thanks
