Projector Headlight Repair

Apparently I just pulled way too many G's at autocross this weekend. Took 11th in PAX and 1st in DS (20th in RAW....shhhh, keep that quiet). After fixing nearly everything else on the car, the headlight decided to fall apart (on the inside...that I can't touch). Soooo, how do you get in there?

Top ring just fell off, bottom looks way off...
