It removes from the rear of the dash, you need to unclip the fascia to do it though

Sorry don't know, but it must be able to be done for all the people who change their clock light colour

pit it face down on a bench, there is a clip that you need to prize away from the white body, the at 120 degrees from this there are 2 hollows in the black bezel from the back.
Put a small screwdriver in and prize then till they click... it should then pop out

When I do those sort of jobs it's usually hear a click followed by an "Oh Sh**!"
Take care.
