Rear center brake light cover

Can you guys tell me how to remove the rear center brake light cover. I need to clean the glass behind it. I tried tugging on it but was afraid of damaging it. I did notice after I did pull on it a little it won't line up right. Will new clips take care of that problem?

Thanks for your help

If I am not mistaken it pulls down - the clips are good at making it stay put. I would assume that new clips will take care of the problem about it not lining up correctly - but, my brake light cover was pulled off by the dealers tint guy - instead of simply replacing the clips, they replaced the entire brake light cover.

one of my clips is a bit funky but the thing still stays on...just has a tad bit of space on one of the sides. no biggie

You have a warranty, you can probably just go to the dealer and they will replace it.

If it was falling off or something then I would but the way it is now it is trivial...not worth my time going to a dealer to have them replace it assuming it isnt how it is supposed to be.

Yeah, I have the same problem -- I assume the glass is cloudy from all the outgasing of all the plastic from the car being new... I can't get under it to clean it, so I think I might ask the dealer to do it for me when I get the oil changed next...
