I looked at it the other day, and am not sure how without breaking the lense covers.

Easy as pie.
Grab the rear end and hold the front up. pull down firmly.
Sometimes its easier to pull it down from both sides for me, and other times easier to pull it from the front. Just depends how my fingers feel at the time.
Its gonna be tough, but the whole console pulls right down. Dont yank to hard though, it has the small wiring harness attached to it.
after it pops down, unplug it and change your bulbs out. plug it back in, and it pops right back on.
Trust me i have had my share of console ups and downs.
heres a pic of the backside. those little pointy things (clips) near the very top, beside the lights and out at the bottom hold the console up. the small black ***** are the bulbs.

I have contemplated doing blue leds in my overheads and some blue bars under the dash/rear seat.
snap a nice pic of your interior once you put them in for me. I wanna see the light dispersion in the interior with LEDs
