How do I get the headlight bulb out? I disconnected the harness, but the bulb doesn't seem to easily remove???

ok so I'm a duma@@

The large retainer ring is covered by the rubber boot. I thought it was more complicated, like removing the 3 phillips screws. Glad I didn't!!

YOu don't even have to unplug the wiring harness.
Just twist the bulb handle and pull it out.

I have the same problem right now as I'm trying to remove the headlight bulb to install my AutoLamps HID.
i'm attaching the picture of the back of the bulb where it looks like i gota unscrew the screws? Becuase it's NOT coming off when i twist clockwise....
What am i doing wrong?!??
