Default They're on a sprung "plunger"...

...just prise the edges either side with a couple of trim removing tools (which I'm sure you will own...) or something else that won't scratch. Try and get right under (if you know what I mean) or there is a danger of snapping the tabs that hold the body-coloured cover onto the main mechanism. You can then either prop it open with something like a small block of wood, or let it rest back down slightly off centre, and 2 locating "spikes" pointing downwards will support it.

Not sure this helps....I don't have any photos!
