'06 TL, Door Sensor: How do i replace it? *pic*

my alarm keeps going off for no reason. After investigating i figured out that my car thinks that my passenger rear door is open when it not, which sets off my alarm.

I have read many threads on here regarding this issue. Most fixes require adjusting a screw that puts pressure on the sensor, however that will not fix my problem. i have pushed on the sensor with my hand and it still believes the door is open.

Anyway, how do i remove the circled sensor?

thanks in advanced!

I am having this same issue. I brought a new sensor from the dealer and installed it, but the display is still showing the rear door is open. I even installed the new sensor on another door to ensure it works. Does anyone have any other ideas to help fix this issue?
