Anyone know how to remove 3rd brake light from car?

There's a lot of dust and stuff between my rear windhield and the light, stuff is trapped in the box that contains the light. I want to remove the light temporarily to get at the dirt ans vacumm it. Anyone know how to remove it? Are there screws or clips to undo before I start yanking at it?

I have attached an image. I think all you need to do is pop it up where the clips are, and carefully pull out the area where it has pawls. I haven't had to remove it yet without having everything else out, so I don't know for sure.
