I've been struggling with this for a couple hours now....and should be a simple fix.

basically im trying to replace the bulb behind the climate control ***** because it went out.
i took it to a dealership for a prior issue and he took it off in about 3 seconds with the same tool i am using (a very small screw driver) and just tucked it in the side of the **** and pulled it off.
by this point, i need to replace the darn **** because ive chewed it up enough that it bothers me.
i decided to stop trying before i start scratching up the dash around it too much.


i didnt know if anyone knew any tricks or tips on how to get the thing off!

thanks.
