986 Headlight bulb change snafu

[CactusBob]

Upgrading bulbs on my 200 Boxster S. Watched all the videos. Did the passenger side, NP. Stuck on the drivers side. With 3-5x the force on the wrench, nothing budges, no pop, no movement of the light. Wondering if leaning on the headlight in a certain spot helps it release, maybe lifting slightly on the front edge? Don't want to smash things, by cranking too hard and now I have one side with nice bright light an one side with old original style light. Any ideas?

Firstly, I would use a 5mm socket, not the on-board tool. Then I would try to lock the headlight. i.e. press against it (possibly a second person) and mentally turn the locking bar backwards, so clockwise on the left-hand side and anti-clockwise on the right-hand side, seen from the front! Then release, i.e. the other way round. Good luck!
