    only way is to use double table and hook to a cloths hanger wire and fish it out.

    Otherwise have to take the whole headlight off the car and shake it out.

    A piece of a broken LED fell into my headlight housing and I found this clever way to remove it:

    DIY: Moth in Headlight Removal!!

    I didn't actually use that technique to remove the LED piece because it just seemed to disappear, but it looks like it would work, and with less chance of scratching anything! :)

    Luckily I had a pick-up tool when I dropped my bulb.
