Actually, the manual is the one that saved me lol, and your comment.
Kinda put 2 and 3 together

Came out to be really simple, all this time i was thinking "twist this thing to the left..."
They look fantastic now.

thanks!
Glad you got it sorted

Sorry to tread jack, but I still can't get the light out. And I completely bent the piece. I stuck flat head into the little hole on the left of it, and turn it. But it wont budge.
oh no,, you bent the peice ! don't turn it just gently push to the right, then pull it off, then kinda like shake it left and right and your good to go, that's what i did
