Thank you Michele. Don't worry. Maybe I will turn the Discovery into a
submarine.
Back to the mission:
The plastic that holds all the lamps together is connected with a big electrical connector that you can pry off by hand or with a little help with a flat screwdriver. You can't help but notice it when you open the hatch.
Other than two functional hands, just expect to glow a little (that's sweat).
For a beginner, give yourself a hour and one half. Grab the tools and bring the cooler with ice and something you like to imbibe afterwards.
You need probably need to remove the lenses if you are doing a total swapout with a new set of receptacles. Inspect it first to see if you really have to replace it. I bet if you have one of those dentist tools with a curved pick or a tiny screwdriver, you can charm those connections back into submission.
