It is very simple, 2 nuts on the backside, disconnect the wire and unplug the light. If you have an original radio you may need to remove it for access to the lower nut.

Jerry the most comon problem with them is the points are arched over and no longer allow the rewind to work.  Simply clean them with 600 paper and they will run for a long time.
