Guys, any Ideas how to disassemble the module from a regular stock 2D/3D maglite with rebel or cree led (the newer version with deep reflector)?

I took the module out of the switch assembly, but now I'm a bit stumped and don't want to use brute force. I have a feeling that it should be very easy but maybe I lack the proper tool.

If it is anything like my mini mag's LED then it isn't intended to be taken apart. So taking it apart may mean bending a metal case or breaking plastic clips or other things that don't go back together. For example with my mini mag there is a steal case crimped over a plastic end, you'd have to wreck up the metal case pretty bad to get it open.
