How do you replace a U-shaped florescent tube?
My kitchen light has (2) of these bulbs and I'm not sure how to safely remove the old ones. Thanks!

There should be a clip that holds the bulb at the bend. Gently pull down at the clip then pull straight back.

U Tube lamps are actually easier then the straight lamps to change. The tube has a clip at the bend just to hold it up inside. The sockets are made to pull the pins straight out. So give it a little tug and it should come right out. When you put the new tube in, just give it a good push and you'll hear a little snap that they are secure. Then just clip the bent end, and you're done.
