Changing Parking Light

Hey Group

My passenger side parking light has a hole in it.
I went to the local pre-owned parts place and found one.
I came back home and started to change them out. I found the two
screws under the hood but I can't seem to get the chrome ring and light out of its socket. I don't see any other screws or gromets.
I pulled and pried to the point of almost breaking the chrome ring.
Whats holding this bugger?

My Chitlins book is useless and I don't have a maintenance manual.

Any help?
Thanks
Roland

Remove the washer box and below it there are 2 10 mm nuts holding the chrome plate on. the plate comes out with the corner and the parking light.
