Yeah most people don't have an 8mm flex headed ratchet spanner buddy. OP don't listen to this snob.
Just use a plain old 8mm wrench and try to wiggle it in there.
5.99 on Amazon, hardly tool snobbery

I actually did this job today to my Z4. I found the easiest method was using a 6 mm bit and a brake bleeder wrench.
None of you mere mortals have probably ever even heard of a brake bleeder wrench.
