The plinth should be screwed on. Pull the chrome ring out (if you have any), then pop out the glass cover (again if fitted), remove bulb and then there should be three screws (if my memory serves me correctly). Pull the light fitting through. Then the plinth should unscrew and come off although rust may have a bearing on how easy and in how many pieces! :shock:

and club members should be able to buy re-manufactured plinths from Club Spares (another fine reason to join :whistle: )
