More About Removing Trim Rings
The trim ring is the narrow ring of plastic (usually) that
contacts the ceiling and gives your ceiling light, and your
LightSpeaker
®
a finished look when butted against the
ceiling drywall. Your LightSpeaker
®
comes equipped with
its own paintable trim ring. If your LightSpeakers
®
do not
fit directly into the recessed lighting fixture, you may need
to remove the trim ring and any included reflector. This
is not a difficult process however exercising a little care
will make the job look better when you are finished. We
suggest that you turn off the light switch and the circuit
breaker prior to beginning any work.
With the old light bulb removed determine whether your
hand will fit easily through the hole into the interior of the
lighting fixture. If it does, you will likely not require any
special tools to complete the process. Simply grasp one
end at a time of each of the two coil springs and lift them
free of the retaining clips in the fixture housing. See figure
below for the various ways that these springs may be
attached to the housing.
