too easy

pull off the rubber cover at the back. pull the wiring connector off the back.
grab the housing that holds the bulb, push it in and turn it (anti-clockwise, from memory)

the whole shebang will come out and you can pull the globe out from the front.

viola, done

ummm Wabbit
what about the clip that holds the globe holder in ...???

me thinks you are replacing the park globe...which requires a twist

not on my VK, Smitty

You made me go downstairs and check, and it's exactly how I described.
I looked for evidence of a clip and it doesn't look like there's provision for one
