How do I get into the overhead lights?

This might be something that has already been addressed on the Forum. I have a 2016 Georgetown 329 and am a full timer. How do I get the covers off the overhead lights? There are small spaces on either side of the covers that look like they are for a screwdriver to pry off the cover but I was not able to get the cover off completely, only one side. Little critters made it into several of the lights and it's time to give them the boot. Any help would be appreciated.

On my 2011 I get hold of the glass lens and turn CCW about 20 degrees. The light drops down out of its fitting.

Thanks Mogman but I must have a different light. That sounds like the "puck" lights I have in some areas. The ones I can't get into are the three main overhead lights in the living area and two more in the bedroom. They're about a foot long and 4" wide and have two small slots on either side that look like space for either a screwdriver or a special tool to take off the cover. I would send a picture but don't know how to get a photo from my I-phone into a letter like this. Again, thanks for your response. Hopefully someone else has my same light setup.

I did it but can't remember the sequence exactly. You either need to press in on both ends or on both sides. It isn't completely obvious, but try it and you will figure it out.

You squeeze slightly and slide away from the center or outward.
