The passenger side front parking lamp (in the same housing as the hi beam) in my '98 E320 needs to be replaced. Is it a simple matter of finding out how to un-spring the clips? Or must the air cowl just behind the housing also be removed? Any other hints or recommendations are also appreciated. Thanks.

Pretty simple, Frank. Yes, the large oval hatch to the rear housing needs to be unlatched (two wire retainers). if your hands are tiny and you're bendable like Gumby, you may be able to finesse the fitting loose.
Fortuantely with your model year, removal of the headlight is a 10 min job at most and you can easily access the bulb fixture that way as well..... and with lots more maneuverability. The bulb should be an H6W bayo fitting.
