Help required - cant get spot lights off

Hi All

I'm having difficulty getting my rusty old spot lights off my mini. I'm attempting to change the grill for the aero grill, but having probs getting these damn spots off.

I've got some pictures to explain the problem, but basically I'm unscrewing the nut in the first picture:



But the actual thread inside is turning aswell, as shown in pic 2:



What is the best way of getting these spots off? Is it usually just a case of unscrewing the nut in the first pic?

Cheers for any help
Gav
