Map pocket

Can anyone tell me the proper method of removing the document pouch connected to the right side of the dash. 83 T/A.
Im a little concerned about just pulling it but if I should,just tell me.

Thanks-A-Lot,
Larry

i have taken these map pokcets numerous times, and each time i have used a long screw driver and carefully lifted it off using the driver as a lever. Not once have i cracked the backplate.
