Tired of breaking those little sidemarker bulbs? Seems like every time you try to pull one out or put one in, either the bulb breaks or you get your fingers sliced on the housing. Here's an easier way. Take a 1/2" internal diameter hose line length, and insert it over the bulb glass. Now you can press/pull and turn with the length of hose, which neatly grasps the bulb without breaking it. Different size bulbs can be similarly done with different hoses.
