stock blub just won't go back in

Today I took out the bulb just to check which ones I need for my HID's and it was sooooo hard to put back in, the rubber attached to the bulb part kept troubling me, was there something I was doing wrong? or all of them like that? I finally managed to get it in after pushing it soooooo hard.

Yes, you were doing something wrong because they pop right out and pop right in. It is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo easy.

Oh.. bulb.. not blub.

When it's hard to put back in, than yes it's an indication something is wrong. Look at it carefully, try to rotate it. The connection should mate in easily.

Maybe the rubber on the bulbs was loose, it has to be seated properly.
