Some Bezel Removal Advice?

Ok, getting ready to take the bezel off and get in to the center console/dash. Read all the how-to threads on doing them. Just a little leery of those spring loaded clips. I HATE breaking those damn attachment clip things. Seems like one would always go on my old ford trucks. Then everything never seems to go back together right. Have no experience with dodges design.

When you start taking stuff off, do you just get a small screwdriver and start prying??? How much force are we talking. I hate to just start ripping.

Sorry if this seems like a silly post, i just like to know what i'm getting into....
