Default '94 Interior Light Lens removal???

Before I break something....How do you get the lens off the ceiling light next to the moonroof controls/between the visors.
I tried prying off the lens to no avail and then tired to remove the whole panel. I quit before I tore up the headliner panel.

Thanks,
JU

Like vinh said, use a small flathead and carefully pry the plastic cover off from the 4 notches on both sides. If you take your time doing that, you won't crack the cover.

The door panel lights are easy to pop off just use a tiny fllathead screwdriver. For the light by the visor are a little harder, put the flathead about an inch away from the end and pop it off. The light behind the sunroof is really imposible not to scratch up. I coun't figure it out without scratching it but its not that noticable at all. I put in cyber whites xenon bulbs for the door panels and light behind sunroof. I've searched and email copanies nobody makes a 211 or 44mm xenon interior bulbs. All I can find was the led bulbs but I dont want to change my electric system to make it work.
