bi-pin bulbs problem...

hi all!

I have got a mag85 (in 3D host with KIU socket and FM throwmaster) and I really like it...I have also bought 2 X WA1306 bulb as low bulbs...
all is perfect just one thing:
each time I need to change bulb (from 1185 to 1306 or vice versa) I spend about 5 minutes to center the bulb into the reflector hole (I think that this operation is more difficult with throwmaster becouse of the bigger hole...)
I have had the same proble with FM PR-Base to bi-pin adapter and at the end I think that this is a common problem with bi-pin bulbs...( I have noticed that with ROP bulbs you don't have this problem...)
can you help me?
have you got any suggestion?
have you got the same problem?

thanks in advance!

PS: hope this is not a stupid thread

Here's the way I do it. With the head, reflector and bulb installed, remove the bezel and lense and use the back end of a pen to center the bulb. Reassemble the lense and bezel.

thanks!
I'll sure try it.

any other advice?

When I change Bi-Pin bulbs (in Mag mods) I put the bulb in, then with the reflector installed with the big screwy thing (? bezel i think they call it?) and screw it down until the sweet spot - have to have light on, then from there adjust as necessary with a medical glove on (so not to damage the bulb) but one piece of advise - once the light is off, wait a couple of mins before touching the bulb and always have the light facing up... Once in the sweet sweet spot, screw on the lens etc and your done!

OK...
thank you!

I'll try both ways!
