if i could remember right, it was a pain in the ___ for me too, but i took a towel and covered the bulb and just pulled hard. but you have to twist the plastic thing to reveal the bulb pretty hard too. hope this helps

I am very well aware that instruction from the manual. I am looking for people who have ACTUALLY done it to provide soome tips.

It is not as easy as it looks until I tried it.

you can get them out.. I got mine out.. like I said we had to use long needle nose pliers and was able to grip them well enough so we could turn them and pull them out.. and yes you have to turn them a lil and then pull them out....
