Last time I looked and took the cover off myself, I used a small flat head screw driver to pry the plastic cover off. Then there is a metal piece with a screw in it. Just unscrew the screw and take the metal piece off. Then you can replace the bulbs.

have you looked in the owners manual? that's a great place to look when you need to know stuff about your car.

hey it looks like you have a sunroof, so you just pry the console off and it should pop off. then you need to unscrew it, and youre set.
