Default removing plastic cover on eg cluster

how do u remove the plastic cover on the eg civic cluster? i was looking at it and it looks like it's sealed. i'm thinking i might have to bake it off like people do with head lights. if there's a write up on it i'll be more than welcome. And yes i did search and i could never find anything on removing the plastic cover. all i found were amber light conversions and gsr cluster's into eg's.

The whole black piece, lens included is clipped onto the actual cluster(white piece). There should be six clips.

the clear plastic infront of the needles and what not.. i used something thin like a knife/screw driver pry it at just enough to pop it off but not to crack anything. do that all the way around and it will come off. it is glued on but light force should make it pop right off

ok guys i figured it out. i just heated up the silicon with a blow dryer and pried on it slowly with a pick tool. it came off perfectly. it's a lil time consuming but it worked perfectly.
