I would like to know how to do this as well. I think it would be easier to clean off the sticky goo from the plastic with the switch assembly out of the car.
Anyone have instructions for removing the headlight switch?

Hi Major, and Happy New Year!
I followed the steps to the dot on my 2008 ML350, but I could only get the left side budge for about 1/4", but the right side, or half the plate to right, won't budge at all, no matter how much force I put on the panel removers. I even removed the 3 screws at the bottom of the instrument panel 3 as named on the R&I picture, but the panel won't lift at all with the side panel and the 2 screws all removed.
Would you provide your guidance please. Thanks.
