There are 2 long screws on the inside of the post (at the top & bottom) that hold the side plate on. After you unscrew them, pull out slightly on the front or bottom of the plate because the light socket snaps into a clamp. And then slide it backwards to get the switch thru the hole in the plate. At least that's how mine works....
