You should be able to get it out alright it's installing it that is the boitch assuming you're not planning on pulling the plenium. I actually used my nine year old daughter to install mine. She could get her hands right in there. Once the bolt was threaded into the block I took it from there. She actually thought it was fun. So go borrow a neighboorhood kid for about 15 minutes LOL.

I just changed mine last weekend very easily. If you can't find someone with small hands, take some plumbers dope and put it in the socket, then place some on the top of the sensor and slide the bolt into the sensor seating the top of the bolt against the plumbers dope. This will cause the whole assembly to stick together while threading it and the bolt won't fall to the ground. When you tighten the bolt the dope will be pushed out of the space between the bolt and sensor. Also once you break the bolt free use a flex drive to finish removing the bolt, but don't forget to use the plumbers dope on the drive to keep the bolt secure.
