Replacing Front Light Bulbs
I can find absolutely no way to remove those bulbs from this kind of receptacle. Since they are obviously burned out, I am thinking of crushing one of them and see if I can determine how they are attached. I bent up 4 little metal tabs, two on each side, to see if they were somehow holding the bulb. No go, no effect. I unscrewed the screw holding the green wire to the mounting frame of the light; the white(ish), cloth like covered wire goes into the side of the bottom of the fitting, and I can not see how it is attached, nor how it would be isolated from the metal of the frame to avoid shorting out. There is a very slight, emphasis - slight - movement of the bulb side to side, but no movement up or down. Surely, I'm missing something simple and obvious. Again.
