ashtray light replacement

[axe220cdi]

Chaps,
Does anyone know how to replace the ashtray light bulb on a W211?
I have pulled out the whole assembly but don't know how to disconnect the wires in order to access the bulb holder (which I cant see).
Any advice?

I've already read this elsewhere, but if i 'pull down' on the wired unit, I'm sure it will break off?
Help!
