My Canter has quad headlights. There is a black plastic rectangular surround around each pair of lights which covers the screws holding the sealed beams in place. How do you access the screws holding this surround in place?

Yes I have inspected from the back of the light area. It looks like there may be 3 screws behind the turn indicator lens however I can't see how this lens comes off.

Try pulling the lens out with your fingers or something just to pry the edges out! some lenses are held in with just a rubber type band, with those just pull out gentley and rest the lens to one side to change the bulbs.

Problem solved!
The two screws under the indicator lens actually let the whole indicator assembly go (it was initially "stuck" with muck so the screws didn't initially appear to do anything). Once the indicator assembly was off there were two more screws holding the plastic surround. Once these were removed and the clips at the top popped the lens surround screws could be accessed.
Thanks for your help.
