Actually, more like an eighth turn counter-clockwise. (Lefty loosey, righty tighty). I had several that I could not get the frosted glass disk to turn. One I eventually pulled out far enough to push the spring loose, but putting that back in the bracket was a real pain. Then I got smart! Got a ziplock bag of crushed ice and held it against the glass for five minutes (arm went to sleep), and the glass contracted enough to make it easier (but still tight) to remove.
