A:The way that you change the light bulb is to either pull back or slightly turn 2 of the Brackets and slip the glass/diffuser out "be carefull not to drop it" and then you can change the light bulb. Make sure the light fixture is turned off and use a tissue or towel while holding the new light bulb and put it into place. If you use your bare hands to change the light bulb than the oils that are on your skin will come into contact with the bulb and possibly shorten the life span of the light bulb. Once changed then you can slip the glass back into place and then reposition the clips back into place.
