I got that New Hitachi lcd TV a few months ago and thought it had One
300 Dollar bulb to replace, know they are advertising it as there best
seller as it has 3 bulbs !!!.
I hope not, that scares me, but no complaints on the picture Quality.
Maybe a come on, but can't take the back off to look as I would void the
warranty.

To replace the bulb you would take off the front panel. It's behind a door
off center to the left. And the Hitachi only has 1 bulb. I would think there
3 bulb advertisement was a misprint. I know that there light engine is
proprietary. Where did you see it advertised as 3 bulbs?

At the local store call Van Vreedes, (I think they are only local), it is
holding it's price real good so far, but a lot of competition helps.
Is the bulb behind the Front that snaps off, then behind it is 4 screws, I
would think that might be it, right ?
I think they would say it's a misprint (in big letters too), and when
you get there they would say 3 colors. It sure has a nice bright picture.

Yes the bulb is behind those screws. But the LCD tv only has one bulb not
three. Now there are three LCD panels, one for each color. That is maybe
what they are talking about, but that has nothing to do with bulbs.

I'm with you, and thanks for pointing me to front of the TV, I thought it
was behind the left side.

I didn't buy there Glass stand, I got a little wider one with one shelf that
gives me more hieght for my Center speaker.
Again, Thanks Much.

The Hitachi glass stand isnt that bad, and in my are it's only $299, which
is better than the Sony rip you off stand.
