You'd hope it would be as easy as taking a couple screws out of the lens.

More likely it is pressed into the door panel and held in place... by friction and little plastic "fingers" that press out from the sides. (Hard to word that, sounds worse than it is.) You'll basically have to pry the assembly out.

If you're really unlucky, you'll have to remove the whole door panel to get access to the site socket, which will be a standard twist lock socket with a push in bulb. (Just like the cornering lights.)
