Must confess its never been that obvious to me either!
The diagram http://www.lushprojects.com/bongopartsm ... 1of02.html
doesn't show any screws so possibly usual sprung clip arrangement ?

Found it.
To remove the surround remove the light cover and release two screws then feel around the transfer for two depressions. Pierce here and remove two more screws. Switch removal is obvious. The two reset switch wires travel under the headlining to the NS and then outside to the rear.
