Review on Conair Makeup Mirror Replacement: Circular Fluorescent Bulb 5.5-Inch T4 - 12W FC12 by John Goerge

Yes, it took me 10 minutes to install from start to finish. I don't understand why everyone says it's so difficult. The lamp is held by 4 zippers at the 12 o'clock, 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions. Carefully remove the 4 cable ties with a screwdriver. Next, in 4 places where the cable ties were located, you need to carefully "push" the lightbulb out of the groove into which it was snapped. Once that is done, unplug and remove the lightbulb. Insert a new bulb, gently snapping it into the 4 grooves, then re-insert the 4 clips. Put the light cover back on and screw it on. Not that difficult. Just take your time without forcing. If you can peel off your smartphone's protective case without damaging those little protrusions, it becomes a cinch. In any case, it is much more profitable than buying a new mirror.
