You have to really yank on the retaining ring, it has two little bitty
handles
and rotates about 45 degrees in the standard loosening direction (CCW from
the
back) - I really thought I was going to break mine, had a friend with
smaller
hands try too...the bulb just pulls straight back out after the retainer
comes
off.
