I believe that there is two screws on the outside cover, then pop it off and you have axcess to the bulbs. Did mine last year, all I know is that it was easy.

DO NOT try to pry the red part off. The whole thing will crack. Ask me how I know? 
The entire thing with the black against the truck comes out. It can be a PITA. Unscrew it, put a towel over it & with a hammer tap the sides. It should free up some & then take something to put under the light & pry it off.

two screws then lift out the bottom ( closest to the window) as you pull it out. The assembly is tucked in there pretty good.
My '91 worked fine but a '94 I recently played with was a mess, I ended up hard wiring the bulbs in place.
