Whoever wired your house is an imbecile, have all those ridiculous
fixtures changed, you probably don't even need many of them, and what
kind of moron installs a light fixture that is blocked by the opened
garage door . duh . have it moved! But then you aren't very
resourceful either, you could have changed that lamp in daytime and/or
used a flashlight. As to relamping the the garage door opener I can't
imagine not being able to open the translucent plastic cowl, it's
cheap plastic, so what if it cracks from prying at it, and then do not
close it again, it will give a lot more light without the silly cover,
it's best to remove that cover and throw it in the trash. And even if
your garage has no windows for light you can use the light from the
opener to relamp the fixture covered by the door. And all screw-in
lamps especially those outdoors should have their threads coated with
a thin layer of silicone grease, or even vaselene, and don't screw
them in any tighter than to make contact. I really don't buy into all
your silly alibis... there are lots of people with handicaps, instead
of constantly whining they make things at home handicapped accessible.
My kitchen has two bottom corner cabinets with doors too narrow for me
to reach very far into, so I bought one of those grab-it sticks
because that's where I store all my Crystal Palace. LOL
One of the handiest tools I own is an extra long back scratcher I made
with a 3/8" hardwood dowel and a bent fork attached with epoxy, it's
great for reaching into narrow spaces and under furniture for
retrieving cat toys... but originally I made it for keeping at work to
use as a back scratcher, none of the ones you can buy are made long
enough nor are they rigid enough for a really good back scratching.
