Hey Ronald,
Normally the lens # A44RB comes off fairly easily if it's not very old. If it's a bit old and has build up, you can try to gently pry with a flat head screw driver but it could crack easily so be careful. Most people just swap out the entire setup with Optronics Trailer Clearance or Side Marker Light and lens # MC44RB so they aren't too worried about prying it open and damaging the old lens.
What kind of trailer is this on?
