I will send pictures of what you are removing to access the bulb. There are two basic parts one of which is made up of three components": the lens, the chrome frame and the bracket holding those two in place. The assembly is a friction fit into the other "basic part" which is the bulb socket mount bracket. This bracket is fastened in place by four small screws and stays in place. The chrome lens can be pried out of the housing from either end using a thin knife blade or screw driver. keep in mind the socket mount bracket is only slightly smaller than the outside of the chrome frame and it is has flat end tabs where the screws are placed.
Likely will be some surface corrosion that will make it a bit tedious to remove. Light machine oil when you put it back in place (actually I like Ballistol spray...no mess)
