Parker's are easy - twist the housing out from the back of the headlight. No need to remove, just a bit awkward to get at.

the parker will be inbetween the indicator & headlight, it's a smaller fitting similar to the indicator.

Parker's are inside the indicators:  I don't have an engine bay photo or the car to check, but I'm pretty sure it was just a twist housing.

yeah it's in the back of the headlight in the plastic backing next to the rubber grommet thing that seals the headlight globe, it will be in a plastic globe holder about 25mm long, with a 1/4 twist to remove
