how to remove the cover off an oyster light
Oyster Lights July 30th, 2007Hi. I have moved into an apartment which has an oyster light fitting in the bathroom. The oyster light seems to be type that is screwed in and has no clips on the sides for easy removal. Its now time to replace the light bulb and i have no idea how to replace it. Do you have a step instructions that i can follow in order to change the bulb? Thanks for your help. Cristina

Dear Cristina
Many thanks for your enquiry
I am afraid that there are too many different oyster light fittings around to give you precise directions
My guess though if there are no clips visible on the oyster light that the cover either screws off (I would start with this if it was me) or just pulls off (it has spring loaded clips inside)
Just be very careful and always have your hands around the lens cover just in case it come off suddenly.
If it is a screw off type oyster light a small turn in one direct and it should come off and if it is the pull type it will probably just keep spinning without coming off and then you will know just to pull it off
This is a guide only as I obviously cannot see what oyster light fitting you are talking about! Good luck!
Just be sure to change the old bulb with a long life one so you dont need to worry about for a while
Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Kind regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
I have the Studio Oyster Light Fittings in my apartment The cover is held in place with 3 clips). However, when I pull on the clips they do not move. How do I remove the cover?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I have the same problem as above. I can’t remove the cover of my oyster lights snd am about to resort to smashing it. Its a screw on one. Any suggestions to get it off?
