Question 2nd Row Climate Control Backlight Bulb Replacement

Hello,
While sitting in the backseat, I noticed that the roof-mounted climate control for the 2nd and 3rd rows has what appears to be a burned-out bulb in it. (The left side is much darker than that of the right.) Just to clarify, this isn't the rear climate control that's located up front and is part of the main overhead console where the dome light and vent window controls are: this is the climate control that's located on the roof in the 2nd row. I'd like to replace the bulb in it, but don't know how to remove and access it. One person I had spoken to mentioned having to just pull it (the climate control panel) straight down. However, I'm hesitant to do that and break something without first consulting the advice of those here.

Any ideas from those who know?

Pull it down, there are 2 metal locking steel clips on the forward edge, and 2 plastic tabs on the opposite.
