Headlight bulb replacement

[Cool Hand Lurker]

I just learned something today when I tried to insert a new bulb into my Model T headlight socket. It is so much easier to do if you loosen the connection on the back of the socket where the cable attaches first. This allows the prongs inside to move back from the bulb base and allows the bulb to twist into the socket without having to fight the pins. Then the back connection can be turned back in easily. Cool.

Thanks, as it happens My Tudor needs a headlight fix. I will enjoy the advantage.
