DLM924 Bulb replacement

[flob]

Hi folks

Just moved into a property and one of the kitchen spotlights is blown. I've tried and tried to get the bulb out to no avail. I eventually decided to pop the whole unit out but to my surprise, still no obvious way of getting into it. Is this a sealed unit? I've had no response from Aurous and a quick Google didn't confirm or deny my suspicions...

I can't see any retainer clip, and the bezel seems to be part of the unit itself

Googling the part number, finds an ebay listing that suggests this is a GU10 downlight not a sealed unit.

So you appear to be right, after more digging I found this photo online which is supposedly the same fitting just a different colour. I still can't work out for the life of me how to get the bulb out though

Twist the lamp anticlockwise by 1/8 turn and it should drop out.
Rubber gloves may assist in turning it or there are various suction cup tools such as https://www.screwfix.com/p/wolfcraft-wfc-5499000-gu10-lamp-removal-tool/6084K although those work best with flat surfaces, not the textured one that yours has.

I sorted it!

No twisting of the bulb or bezel, you literally just pull the bulb down. Enough force and it eventually popped out. The hardest part was getting my fingernails between the bezel and the bulb.
