I find the easist way is to switch on the lights and then disconnect the battery. The pods will stay up then without any risk of electric shock. Or you could switch on the lights and remove the fuse of course to get a similar effect.
The take off the round plastic trim that is held in place by 2 self tappers.
I think you then need to remove a screw from the outer chrome rim so that the beam unit comes off from the adjusters and backing bowl. When you put it all back together again, just make sure that the height etc of the beam pattern is correct as you will probably have disturbed it when removing the light.
At the end of the day, its only a couple of screws etc etc, so just get stuck in and make a note of where each screw comes from.

Just to point out that there is no way on earth that you will get an electric shock from 12v 
The bigger risk is that you might accidentally short a live wire to earth (not as easy on a GRP car, but still possible), but apart from a shower of sparks you'd only be looking at a blown fuse (assuming car not fr!gged by monkeys, of course).
It IS possible to get a belt from a 12v circuit however: the usual way is to touch the feed terminals of a relay whilst switching it on and off. The 'back-e.m.f.' induced can be quite nasty... and this is of course the way that a HT coil works, which is the other 12v thing that may bite. But lights? No.
