Need Help With Headlight Bulb Replacement

I've searched and I can't find anything that helps. I can get the bulb loose by turning the ring, but I can't get the headlight free from the ring. The ring seems to be held in by sheet metal on the inside of the engine compartment. Does anyone have any tips on removing the bulbs or does anyone know of an easier way to change the bulbs.

Pull up on the handles above the light in the square openings.I think that releases them

Took me about 15 minutes. I had trouble with the second light, but I soon realized that the single screw on the inside moves and you have to put it back in place.
