If I remember corectly from taking mine out there are 2 or 3 clips on the back side of the housing that slide out to release the housing i think u can see them if u pull the rubber strip between the grill and the radiator out of the way. Seems like one of them was a PITA to get to and I lost it when it came loose. But once they are out the housing comes right out.

I just looked at my Bronco it's been a while since I installed my signal lights. With the hood open, remove the screw in the top of the headlight trim, on the engine side of the radiator support you can seen the back side of the headlight housing and the signal light housing under it, on each side of the signal light there is a hole about 1" in diameter and a square hole on the other side of the signal light housing. A stud is in those holes that stud screws into the signal light housing remove the two nuts on the studs. It takes a 7/16" deep socket 1/4" drive to get the nuts off. With the nuts off the whole headight trim will come off. I hope this helps you out.
