How do you access the bulb in this fixture to replace it? Are the 2 screws on either side of the lens for removing the lens? What if 1 won't come out?

It may be loose from the back and just stuck in the cover. I've had to use a small screwdriver and pry from the bottom to get the cover off. Sometimes the cover sticks to the gasket. Hope that helps.

There are 3 thumb screws to twist and the lens pops down hanging on one hinge.. its then a regular screw bulb. . I'd not recommend if you find it difficult to unscrew small knows. .

We haven't had to change the bulb but this is probably what you have to do. To take out the glass you remove the four screws, the housing, and the glass and set them aside. The bulb probably has two straight pins so pull it straight out. Put in the new bulb being careful not to touch it with your skin (using latex gloves works best). Then put the glass and housing back on and re-insert the screws.

I have not changed my as yet, the following is the instructions from the instruction book, good luck. Lower the mirror to its most flat position. Use a credit card to remove the lens cover. Remove bulb by pushing away from the bulb socket. Install new bulb by aligning the pins with the socket, push bulb into socket. a click should be heard

I haven't had to change one yet, but I believe the whole lower assembly (silver ring and glass) twists into place on a mounting bracket. I assume you twist it slightly one way or the other and it will drop from the bracket and reveal the bulb. Hang on to it, seems I remember it being heavier than you might expect.

Not hard to do. If you order a new lamp, it will come with instructions. Basically, it involves removing the bottom front panel (snapped on - I forget if there are screws at this point as well) and then unscrewing the lamp from it's mount. Swap the new lamp out (more involved if you bought a bulb-only replacement) and screw it back in. If you're even a little handy, you won't have any problems.

There is no separate lens, the entire assembly is effectively a lens. There are replaceable bulbs which are included. One of mine was bad and had to be replaced. The lever which holds the assembly to the car body is tricky, it must be moved (slid) a bit before it will release, as I recall. Look on the 'net for replacement instructions.

3of the 4 "knobs" that hold the lense on the lamp are adjustable. Simply loosen them by turning the round part a little bit ( counter clockwise), and swing them outward, away from the lamp and out of the clamp. The lightbulb will be easily accessible. You may need some help as they are a little tight. But it is simple and once you have done it, they don't need to be tightened so much and will be easier for you next time.

There is a screw there. The lightbulb is unlike any i have seen before. I suppose you could, but I would just buy a new one.

I just had to replace the bulb yesterday! My cover pulled off very easily...just need to squeeze the cover a bit to one side and pop out the tab that holds it up there...I'd suggest trying a flat screwdriver if it isn't coming open, though be gentle with the screwdriver. Good luck.

I no longer have these as I sold my Zeiss lenses but I did have the same problem and asked the same question and this is what I found out.....There is a very small (and unfortunately hard to see) flexible metal release....push on it and that will release the ring adapter so that you can unscrew it. Hope that helps.

I believe there are 2 screws on each sides. Once you get those off, the lens should come off.

I just replaced one myself, you want to use the 78mm. First shut the power off to the unit. It will require a light weight glove or napkin as you do not want to touch the bulb with your fingers as your skin oils will eventually destroy the bulb, a phillips head screw driver and a standard flat head screw driver to open the lens cover. Replacing the bulb is a snap, you just have to push the old bulb to one side or the other as the light sockets are spring loaded. Set one side in the socket and lightly push it inward and then lock it in to the other socket, secure your lens and restore the power to your unit and test your light.

Pull the lense to focus light as small as you can. Then turn the lense section counter clockwise to unscrew it from the main housing unit.

Make sure lamp is unplugged. Lower to its most flat position. Use a thin non-metal object, such as a credit card, to slip between the lens and the lamp housing. (midpoint) Gently apply upward pressure to remove the lens away from the housing. To replace bulb, remove it by pushing the bulb away from the socket. Install by aligning the bulb pins with the socket receptacles then push the bulb into the socket. A click should be heard when connected. Lay the lens back onto the housing being careful to keep the rounded edges to the outside of the lamp. Align the inside tabs with the slots in the housing, rotate the lens down and snap into place by pressing along the outer edge. Good Luck! Make sure lamp is unplugged.
