Hazard Button Surround Trim

Does anyone know how to take of the round trim piece that surrounds the hazard warning button on a 996?

TIA

ok, will do thanks. I didn't want to do that without checking first. Afraid to screw something up.
The instructions I got said there was a screw to unscrew but I did not see anything. Do I have to press on the clip that is on the left before I pry it off. Thanks for the quick response.

Put something through the side holes diagonally on each side...Pinch them together, push to release the clips, and then pull out...

Pinched the clip, used a covered screwdriver and pried it out gently til it popped out. Thanks for all the help, boardmembers! My colored hazard surround trim gives it a unique touch that makes it all worth while.
