Remove fuel/headrest buttons QP5?

As I continue to sort out the niggles on my QP5, I wondered if anyone can advise how to remove these buttons? (Just got a sticky button and I'd rather bring it indoors to work on).

Does the fascia underneath just pull off (seems to be quite rigid)? And this screw out somehow? Or is somebody going to tell me that I have to remove the steering column to get to it?

Thanks.

From memory when I changed the trim above this. Unscrew the drivers side cubby hole and lower down. There is a screw either side of this switch panel. One behind the dash panel on the right and one by the steering column.

Thanks for this. And yes, it was correct. There were a couple of screws underneath the steering wheel (to remove the storage unit and get better access to the side of the switch panel), then reach up for a single screw down the side of the switch panel, and then 'pop' the side of the dashboard off to reach two more screws on the 'door' side. Thanks again!
