LED Sidelight bulb - help fitting

[stevo181]

Hey there,

I bought a set of LED sidelight bulbs, was easy enough to locate, take the rubber backing off, disconnect and take bulb and bulb holder unit out, however it seems and looks like the bulb is soldered tot the holder? It maybe I wasn't pulling hard enough but I didn't want to risk breaking anything.

I got these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231076574120?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Could anyone shine any light on how to remove the actual bulb and replace?

Thanks

Steve.

Pull the bulb out the holder?:S

Maybe a picture of your problem would help as it sounds very odd :-D

Make sure you're pulling on enough of the bulb, I assume it goes into the holder which is then soldered?

They are capless bulbs i.e. they don't have a metal base. These bulbs are just a push fit connection. So just pull on the bulb and the thin part of the bulb at the bottom will come out of the bulb holder.

Yeah felt stupid in asking, it just looked like the bottom bulb connections were soldered on and not able to pull out as they didn't want to come free.
I'll have another go at it, just didn't want to break it and be without a sidelight!
