use a pocket knife to pry it off from the inside edge. Be careful not to slip and scratch anything. It will pop off. Once you get it off, there's a couple bolts to unscrew.

It will fit, but you have to make your own holes and use longer bolts than what comes with the roof vane if you order it from a dealer. Here is mine,
