Press downwards on the plastic-clips found on the back of the assembly unit that hold the 'middle' section (where the airbag light is) and the cigarette lighter:




while holding down the 'pin' down, then press/push on that side of the assembly forward to genly just push is a bit so that the plastic clip doesn't snap back in place

Once done, then proceed with the other side



once on the other side, repeat the same and genlty push that side you are currently working on a bit forward so that the plastic pin won't snap back and clip the aseembly back in place

Once the assembly has been released from both plastic pins, than press forward to slide the entire 'middle' section and cigarette lighter together
