How do you change the whole light fixture for a pool?

I am not talking about just replaceing the bulb Im talking about the whole fixture because it is rusting and ugly.



We already removed the light from the lil niche its in and is now in the pool deck.



My dad observed that there is a screw at the end of the light fixture and it is screwed into the main electric? does he just unscrew it and put the new one?



We already bought the new fixture from Leslies pool
