Default Tech: How to replace Opto bulb?

I have a Wurlitzer 1015 OMT the has a bad turntable index bulb.

How do I replace it without tearing the whole thing down?

What type of bulb is it, push in or screw in?

I know there's a trick but I don't know how to do it.

TIA

Mike

Hi Mike,

The bulb is only $3 from us, and you use a pencil with a thin rubber
collar added to push the bulb and rotate it 1/4 turn.

A bit of Scotch tape made into a tube on the pencil works well.
