I am 95% sure. I have taken mine apart 10+ times trying to locate a short in the system, change the bulbs to a brighter type. etc. I don't know how else you would access that area. As I recall, there is a piece of glass and a cardboard "gasket" above the plastic piece.
Good luck.

I already have the three switches out and I see the tabs but I am hesitant to pry/bend the lens to get the tabs free. Are you sure?

I need to remove the assembly as I am dismantling the car for a project. Yes I have parts available.

The plastic piece has tabs on the ends that snap into place. I believe you can gently bend the lens to disengage the end tabs. Also, there are 6 bulbs to replace. If there is no light, the problem probably lies elsewhere

You have to pull the three overhead pushbutton switch bodies.

How does one remove the main plastic lense from the overhead console in order to change the light bulb?
