Headliner Removal?

The headliner on my 920 is held in by some sort of fastener, but all I can see are these little plastic caps.
Do they just pull off? Is there some sort of trick? I don't want to break them.
I'm trying to get to the underside of the deck organizer to replace the sheaves, but I haven't been able to figure out how to remove the headliner!

The plastic caps just pop off!

The plastic caps can easily be removed with the aid of a little screwdriver between the cap and the headliner. However removing the headliner is not necessary. Just unscrew the bolt that holds the sheave on deck. The nut is laminated to the bottom of the deck.
Kind regards,

It turns out that the underside of the deck organizer is not just solid threaded glass. There are stainless t-nuts under the deck into which the bolts screw.
Unfortunately the adhesive used on the t-nuts has given way and a few of them fell down to the headliner when I removed the bolts from above. I've been able to fix all but one: the outermost port bolts are in the head which doesn't have a removable headliner.
Does anyone have suggestions for reaching the underside of those bolts other than just cutting into the solid headliner of the head compartment?
