How to change rear interior light?

The rear interior light in front of the rear window headliner goes out. The one turns on when you open the door. Does anyone know how to remove the cover? I am suspecting a blown light bulb but just want to check before getting part.

Appreciate your help...

Get a flat-head screw driver, and ply it out, slowly

Finally got time to replace the bulb and fairly straight forward thanks to zam2000. But it turns out not the bulb perhaps something else down the wiring. I am suspecting the fuse and can someone please give me a pointer on where this fuse is located? I mean the actual fuse compartment (inside the passenger area or under the hood) plus the fuse location.

Thanks ahead.
