Clearly i am missing something easy

I am trying to replace my bulbs in my current orbit 2x150 MH 2x130 PC fixture. I am stuck on removing the PC bulbs. I can get the lamp clips off but I do not know how to remove the bulb out of the socket. I don't know if they just pull out or if something has to be unclipped :confused:. I should have checked when I first got the fixture, but I didn't think about it at the time. Does anyone know how to remove the bulbs? Thanks!
 
Just wiggle them back and forth and pull the lamp out Chris. They may be stuck a bit but steady pulling and shifting back and forth should do it bud.

If I remember correctly, PC's are just pins at one end with a cord. Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle... and if that wont work, a tack hammer will ;)
 
I have even used a small screwdriver coupled with a little WD-40 to pry them apart - I hated those pins in the old 12" and 30" Coralife PC fixtures I used to use!
