Default Griffinpup - got my bulbs yesterday. Any tricks of the trade removing the interior light covers?

I got the big interior lights changed but how do you change the individual "reading" lights in the overhead area, "puddle", door and the glove box? Do the lens covers pop off or is the process more involved. I tried gently prying with a small screwdriver but they wouldn't come off. I don't want to bust up the car. By the way, I love the new color to the interior. Much brighter and natural, especially at night. Thanks again for the help.

I popped them off very very carefully with just my hands... just standard clips hold them in place..

Default Even the individual reading lights????

I know most of the covers can be removed by hand however the reading lights appear to be more securely fastened. Any suggestions??
