2006 fog light replacement

Hey guys,
I'm new here, been searching but having a head time.
I'm trying to change the fog bulbs on my wife's new '06 X5. Can't figure out how to get the plastic trim off. And the only instructions I can find are either pre-face lift E53 or E70.
Can some one point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance!!

You should be able to pull the trim off by prying from the top side with your fingers, at least thats how the pre-facelifts are done.

there is a small semi-circle opening in the trim. DO THIS IN THE WARMTH. the plastic will bend and break in the cold canadian winters if done outside!!!
