There are two screws in the dome light which can be seen below:

Remove the above screws, then push the console forward if the car's a T-top or rearward if the car's a coupe. You'll be left with a wiring connector to separate (though from your description it may have been separated already).

You can see the white connector between the two forward mounting holes:
