Lightbulb 2009 CX-9 GT HID Xenon light bulb removal

Driver side low beam light is not working. The fuse is good. Before I buy new parts I want to check the light bulb by switching with the one on the passenger side, but I have problem with removing the light bulb. I removed the Phillips screw holding wire clip. The clip and the bulb is loose, but somehow the bulb is not coming out. Before I break or bend the clip I want to ask what is the trick to free the bulb from the wire clip.

Wiggle and jiggle was a good idea. Looks like you need to pull out the clip and push up the same time. The problem is that the bulb will fall out as there is no room for the second hand. Installation of the bulb is even more difficult because of limited space. I used string to pull up the clip and than you you can insert the new bulb.
Thanks for the idea.
