Hey guys I wonder how to remove this light cover? I have tryed prying on it a bit but it feels like it might break off so i don't know what exactly i need to do to remove it. One of the bulbs is burnt out and I'd like to replace it. Thank you.

if you want to change the bulb on that you pull it out and dissemble it from the back should be a couple screws i think it was 3 i forgot

Thank you for the more competent answer, so I should just keep tugging on it untill it comes off? Should I pry the cover at all with a screwdriver or something on the front or back?

Thank you, this is exactly what I wanted to know. I didn't want to just pull mine off because i wasnt sure how it was secured on there. But now I do :) Thanks guys !

I felt the same way. I know, it does feels like your going to break it or something but just pull on it hard enough and it comes free. btw, I just did the same thing and the bulb is a BA9. just incase you wanted to upgrade to LEDs or something.
