Yes there is a special tool. It looks like a bent screw driver. I guess you could make one by bending a screw driver about two insches from the tip into and L shape but not quite that sharp of a bend.
Ecklers has one for $11.99. Maybe someone like autozone of pepboys might sell it.
Go online and request a free catalog from Ecklers.com. It's good to have so you can look for things like this or what kind of a bulb something takes. It's also nice to window shop with.
