The reflector plate and wired bits are all just held in place by the friction of the rubber ring around the reflector plate. You should be able to just slip a small screwdriver inside the rubber ring and pry the guts out.....Or, if the "bullet" has been removed, you can put a screwdriver in the the wire access hole and press the guts out from the inside.

Its pretty easy to pull it all apart ... lever the inner out , the electrics disassemble with a small flat driver used carefully ... just follow your nose ... post if you get stuck ...

Chop, listen to what's already been said,

and, pay close attention when disassembling.

I had to rewire one, and it seems I remember
something almost got away lost or maybe damaged.

May not be an issue with what you are doing.

Anyway, just take your time,
and don't get too violent withem.

Just did this myself yesterday. It's not that bad. I used a small screwdriver and pryed the reflector out of the rubber that it sits in. It will appear to be an o ring from the outside but is actually more like a rubber boot that sits beneath the reflector.

Good Luck.
