I struggled for about 10 minutes until I finally had to rip my hand out. What a moron.

I was specifically referring to this thread where paragon admits his blunder

I too have had hand stuck in an awkward place trying to change a headlight on a lowly taurus years ago. For the life of me, I couldn't figure out the right way of doing it and instead squeezed my hand in where it shouldn't be, reminding myself all the while how stupid I am knowing the truth in "if it doesn't fit, don't force it." I did get it replaced that way, but finished up a little bloodier than most of my mechanical episodes.
