Roof running light replacement HELP Vegas 24.1

Need help with how to replace the running lights on the top of our 2017 Thor Vegas 24.1. Three of the 4 light covers are crack. I ordered the lights and now have them, but the entire light mechanism was delivered. I really only want to replace the cover not the entire mechanism. Can I do that? And if so, do I just unscrew the screw on the top and replace with the new one and voila...done?

Be kind..I'm new to this and I'm a woman. LOL!

Well, I was successful in getting the light off after a lot of tugging and pulling. When Thor installed the running lights on the top front of the motorhome, they drilled a new hole in the light mechanism about an 1/8th inch above the front screw hole, why, who knows. Also, the light appeared to be silcone'd everywhere which made it almost impossible to get it off. What a mess. But, I was successful in drilling a new hole in the new light and installing it in the existing holes in the MH. Whewww!
