I think if you look there may be two black pull pins that you remove. Check owners manual and it will tell you exactly how this is done.

Did you end up getting it fixed? If so, did you find the answer here or in your manual. Just curious.

I haven't done it but from the sounds of the link I gave you it should just slide out. Try wiggling it around a bit.

The way you are going about it is correct. Pull up on the two tabs and wiggle the light forward. It is a tight fit and in your part of the world, it may have a bit of an ice build up. The pins on the back of the light fit into a slotted hole. You move the slot when you pull up on the tabs. Keep tinkering and it will fall out for you.
