How do I get the sliding ashtray cover to move - stuck!

My damm ashtray cover is stuck open and short of getting a crowbar out I can't get it to release and close again.

Anyone know how?

TIA

my wife bananas! :D
the sliding mechanism might be stuck. try pushing it in hard like bushburn suggested. Else check to make sure nothing is jaming it. Failing that a trip to the dealer is required

I pushed really hard - thiniking I was gonna break it and it finally moved. Brushed out some small debris and all is good now. Thanks guys.
