It would seem after reading an age old post that mine had already been removed, but I remember discussing it. :groan
Here is what I found though:
If you are trying to take the metal cone out, you don't have to abuse the headlights at all.
1. Remove left bulb and bend the cones legs to allow it to fall in to the headlight casing.
2. Remove right bulb
3. Use something to prod / pull the cone out through the gap on the right as it is large enough to get it out.
4. Refit bulbs, job done, have a brew
Took me literally 5 mins to do it yesterday. I have a handy torch which has a telescopic magnet in the centre which is damn useful for getting to bolts and things that I drop - this worked perfectly to grab hold of the metal cone and pull it out
