you need to grab the trip (and the lether booth) by the end that’s closer to the arm rest. You must pull up on it, so both clips that are there come out at the same time, otherwise you will break one of them.  
Kinda hard to explain. I hope you get the idea.

oh, I got the whole shifter boot bezel out no problems. I’m just wondering how you guys replace the boot itself… it’s held on my push on lock washers on the inside of the bezel… I tried to pry and wiggle one out, but just end up breaking the plastic tab
