Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

i was informed yesterday that one of my park lamps was not operational

this entails taking the headlights out, as far as i know

i have come this far:
it feels loose, but i can't get it out
i am hesitant to apply additional force :(

where am i going wrong?

There is another bolt at the bottom of the light that you access from the wheel well. Good luck, it is a knuckle buster.
