I own a 50-year-old Necchi Esperia. I have the appropriate 5 watt replacement bulb, but I need to know how to remove the original bulb and install the new one. Do I need a special device to do this? Thanks.
I found out finally from a dealer that the bulb just pops out with gentle prying - and the new one then pops in! Nothing to unscrew or remove.

Ken - I would be happy indeed
if this bulb could be unscrewed It doesn't have threads. It's sort of torpedo shaped, with a small protrusion on each endo. I tried to paste an image of the bulb here, but this was apparently not possible. You can see it at
