Quoted from csab00:

Hi Pinballfans!
I have red many articles in led topics but not with the installation process.
The problem with i faced that casual bulbs are working in the bayonet socket but i am suffering to install led to the same socket.
With the bulb is easy push it firmly roatate it then the lamp is in place but if am doing it with the led is very hard the upper part of the led is plastic
so it can easily break. (roatats just the upper part of the led not the whole thing)
I thought first may i am buying a scrap but it seems to be all led type are not so robust as the old bayonet lamps.
Perhaps the sockets are also not perfect but the old lamp still working so i did not thought to replace them.
I can imagine for a new sockets the mounting is easy but i am wondering if it is worth to replace all of them ...
Is there a special tool for leds? How are you installing and testing them?
Thanks for the answers in advance!
