The low beam is not working anymore - for some time.  So with Adventurer down I do not know when my HID conversion wcan be done so I thought today is the day that I will spend the time and replace the bulb.  How dificult can it be?

But here is the problem.  How do I get the globe out? Which part must come out?  Only the glass piece like with the parking light of the globe with the silver 3 pointed ring atthe back as well.  Did a search and read    ...    "Press the bulb in and turn it counterclockwise to
release.".

But how hard must you press.  Any harder and that globe is going to explode in my hand, I fear.

Is there a trick to this.  I come this far.  look at the picture and can anyone help me please.
