What type of screwdriver should I use to change the light bulb in the range hood

hood

I have a MODEL # INCA HC HILO72 hood range
One of the light bulbs has burnt out. Tried to take out the light bulb but the screws are way too tight and afraid of stripping it. What type of screwdriver should I use? Already disassembled the part to make it easier to work on too.
Note: I am a female asking for assistance. Thanks

bulb type

I would suggest you replace the halogen bulbs with led bulbs. Your bulbs have a base that is called a GU10 BASE. they now make LED bulbs with that base such as these. led gu10 bulbs They will last for decades as opposed to replacing halogens frequently and will use much less energy than halogens.

When you get your old bulb out you can take it to the store to make sure you get a bulb with the same base and the same size so it will fit in your unit. You may find em at the big box stores or you may need to go to a lighting store.

Having change a few of these i should say they can be persnickety. you kinda gota push in on em while turning em and there usually is nothing grab on to for purchase. Make sure you fingers are dry and oil free and push just the right amount. its tricky.

NOTE: i am a man who does not assume that because you are a woman you need my assistance. :)
