Pull connector out off the bulb, pull rubber backing off, push the clip in and move it either left or right (can't remember which) and the clip should come down then remove bulb.

My guess is that you're not being rough enough. It can get a little stiff, mine was when i changed them a few weeks ago. Just yank the fucker out. It'll give.

Pull it straight back
Sometimes it will wiggle free with a flat head, slide it in and turn it slightly

Is it the bulb thats wonky or the beam of light?
If its the light beam you probs have knocked the adjusters on the back (white circles)
Take them to a garage to get them adjusted, doesnt cost much and should be a while you wait jobby
