AC Vent Bulb Blew?

Hey Guys my wife and I were coming back from dinner with my parents (Dad and I sat in the back)And I noticed that the 2 AC Vents closes to the steering wheel were out(the ones with the two arrows on each side of the wheel to send air from left to right) and the wheel's light was out too,so I found a screw on the right side of the wood trim after I opened the glovebox to get to the screw and it still wont pop out just the right said was loose,i didnt want to pull on it cause i was scared I was crack the trim in my cars dash.So how do i pull the 4 ac vents out to see what happend or to replace the bulb??? My car is a 94 S500. ANY IDEAS??????

dashboard bulb replacement W140 1996

Saw the very helpful guide for replacing the upper bulbs, but I have to replace the bulbs which illuminate the 4 thumbwheels immediately below the two main central vents - does anyone have info on how to do this without damaging anything?
Thanks!
