1948 Landing light removal

To replace my landing light, it appears that it is a snap ring holding it in, but does not budge. It retracts into the lower wing, not built into leading edge. Am I correct, and just need to work it, or is there some other procedure?
Thanks, Don

Yes it’s a snap ring. Lower the light first and remove from the horizontal position

Thanks for the confirmation. Mine looks pretty frozen in. Oiled it over night and will see! :) Don
