HELP: Changing the Wedge on the 3GS

Can someone explain to me how to change the wedge bulb on the 3GS? On my 2GS it was a simple unplug/replug. Trying to swap these halogens for LED's has me stumped. I just can't se ehow to unplug the halogen w/out breaking something.

Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

Pull on the individual bulb. Your fingers shouldn't touch any of the black. This threw me off for a good 15 mins. Pull and twist back and forth. It should come off pretty easy after that! Good luck

Thank you!!! I'll give it a shot tonight. I have a couple 194 LED's left over from my 2GS, will they fit? I read some LEDs that said they are T11, 194 compatible. Darius//

D,
ltnt, those 194's will fit. Btw make sure you have the bulbs all the way in the socket otherwise when you go to put them in the headlight housing they will slip and pop off into the housing.
