I thought that too. Put better bulbs in mine and didn't have a problem - turn bars to whichever side gives you better/more comfortable access

Got to the bulb but cannot.get the bulb out!, this is not the standard bulb that should be there (H1), looks like previous owner put a hid kit in so how do you change these bulbs?

Although the tolerance on some of the H1 HID bulbs are not exact,
most of the H1 HID kits used the same H1 bulb base.

When installing mine, I know I had to squeeze the retainer metal clip a lot , before it was in.
