I don't know which bumper you have but on the Xtreme bumper you just reach in behind it to swap the bulb. You can turn the wheels to get better access

the wheels are not in the way but it doesn't feel like there is enough room to get the bulb out while it is still in the socket, has anyone else run into this problem

It is tight, but it is doable, bulb just has to come out and go in at an angle.

Take off the pigtail first, then remove the bulb by twisting up.
