Hi,

I need to get the metal shell off of the magic eye socket so I can replace a resistor.

Any suggestions on how to get it off without damaging anything? :(

Thanks,

Coby

If you look at the edge of the metal where the bakelite socket is, there is a notch that you can put a slot screwdriver into. Pry carefully.
