Damaged rear reflector

Came home from vacation to find scuff marks on my car. Upon closer inspection, it was just dust but someone managed to knock the reflector inside the car.

Before I go pulling at it and making it worse, anyone have any tips on pulling it out? I'm hoping it's just busted tabs or something on the reflector.

It has a bayonet lock. Hopefully if a tab broke it's on the light, and not the bumper.
I was able to remove one without removing the bumper, but I've got arms like a Chimpanzee. YMMV.
Reached up inside the bumper with the car on jackstands.

I was leaning against my car and my knee pushed mine in just like yours. Just reach under, pull it off, screw back on. It'll take a few minutes but you'll get it. It's just a quarter turn to lock in place.
