Lightbulb - 1999 Ski Doo Touring

Hi All - my headlight bulb needs to be replaced on my 1999 Ski Doo SLE. It look alike the bulb should just pull from the plastic connector - but I can’t get it to budge.
Any tips / guidance?
Thanks!

Tip #1: Your voltage regulator is probably fried- that is usually why the bulbs start to go.
Tip #2: There are spring clips or a bulb retaining ring that holds the bulb in place in the housing. Spring clips pry off, the retaining ring twists off.

Thanks for the tip on the voltage regulator.
I should have been a bit more specific, I can’t remove the three prongs from the plastic receiver. Any thoughts?
I did look in the shop manual and saw about the spring clips.

Might be rusted in there, a little penetrating oil sprayed in there and let it sit should free it up.

Thanks - that did the trick! I just ordered a new housing it looks like the plastic clip connecting to the metal crossbar broke. I am thinking that I may have broke the bulb not realizing the housing was loose.
