How to take off the wood frame around the light fixture on the ceiling

See attached picture of the wooden frame on the ceiling.  How does it come loose.
I know it probably is just snaps off, but I don't want to break it.

Thanks

That fixture has 3 or 4 clippy things (I have seen some coaches with 3 and some with 4) that holds it to the celling. I think that you will find 1 that is on the front side and 2 on the rear side. You need a magic butter knife to GENTY pry one end of the wood frame loose. Slide the knife between the roof and the wood and twist. It is just stuck due to the length of time that it has set there. Once you get the front loose the rear will just pop off. Now when you break one of those plastic barrel pieces (you will find them once you get the cover off) you can get new at the home improvement store.

Thanks that worked.  I used a metal spatula.
