Headlight connector sticking to bulb?
Has anyone else had this problem? It seems to be a mechanical fit problem. I broke one bulb trying to separate it from the harness because of this. These are Hella bulbs, whatever the standard bulb is, not plasma-neon-flux-capacitor bulbs or anything.

Yeah, I had a heck of a time disconnecting both the stock bulbs and the Hellas. The rubber boot over the plug has arrows that say "Push," but it's hard to tell exactly where to push. Persistence, serious squeezing, and some foul language seemed to do the trick.
If you study the connection a bit after the bulb is out, you can get a better idea of where to squeeze and how hard. |

Well crap, that's the problem. I didn't know you needed to squeeze the connector. Feelin' pretty dumb.
