Morning...
So I have 4 of these lights in the cockpit, trying to remove the panel to fix a leak. Three of the trim rings simply twist off as we all know....however the last one seems to be FUSED in place.
It is simply stuck and will not twist...it looks like it might have been installed a bit too tight against the vinyl....which of course I would rather not destroy as well.
What have you all done to get an stuck light out...of course if I destroy the ring I could put a large set of vice grips, etc. on it, but I would like to try and save it.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
