HELP!!! Xenon Bulb Replacement

I'm trying to replace my yellowish xenon bulbs on my 2013 M Sport, I have done this in the past with minor difficulty on my 2011 X5 which had two metal prongs holding the bulb seurely in place, all I had to is just pop the metal clips and the bulb came off. But I can't figure out how the bulb is held in place in the 2013. There are no metal clips or any other clip I can see. Any idea ?

No Xenon bulbs normally aren't installed that way. I just installed for my 2010 X5 35d, it's 2 metal clips holding it in place.

But in my 2013 I don't have those clips.
