Searched the forum but I still do not understand and wished there was a pic or something that I can reference. I thought I could just unscrew the light bulbs from the rear housing but it does not seem that way. How do I do this?

Default Two thumb screws to remove the light, two (or three?) Phillips-head screws to remove the
electrical circuit. 180 degree twist to the bulb. Replace.

5 minutes, tops.
