instrument panel light bulb replacement question...

I have a 1990 rs camaro with a driver's side airbag. I need to replace 3 bulbs in my cluster. I have everything off that needs to be off except for the head light switch... It is in the way of the cluster cover (the black border thingy). Is there ome kind of switch to pull this off... if so where is it... any help would be appreciated. thanks.

jaws is right. I used a long screwdriver to push the button in. Also, sometimes the **** will come out if you pull on it with a little pressure while turning it back and forth. That is only if you cant get to the button
