Grip Cap Question

The grip cap (the silver plastic piece that you grab when you open and close the door from the inside) on my G is all scuffed up, so I got a new cap in.

Does anyone have any idea how to pop off the old one? I'm guessing that you can just work it out by sticking a screwdriver in the little cutout at the bottom of the piece (you can feel the space with your hand if you rub the bottom of the plastic cap), but I'm not sure and don't want to destroy anything.

I know, it's small. I'm just paranoid.

Thanks

I got the part in, and did it myself. If anyone's interested, it's not hard. Just pry off the old one from the bottom - there's a little clip at the top you can push down with a screwdriver once the bottom is loosened.

My driver's side is all scuff up as well. How much is the part and will the dealer know what I'm talking about if I call them and ask for a grip cap?

It was $35 Canadian, I think. I can't vouch for the dealership, but if you say it's a grip cap, and explain it, I'm sure they'll find it.
