on either side of the surround, there are 4 small clips that hold the plate surround on. Small flat tip on 2 of the clips will release the surround.

Thanks for the info. I could see the 4 tabs/clips but didnot know how they released. With the knowledge laid upon me here I was able to remove it in about 10 seconds, LOL!
