Default Rear parking sensor pushed in

Hi all. One of the rear parking sensors got pushed in. Seems like it's not very hard to get to it, but I couldn't find any instructions on how to remove the various plastic parts. Did anybody do this? Is it hard?

I've had them push in on my old RX. It's just double stick tape that holds them on. Took it to the dealer to get fixed

The car is no longer under warranty?

Thanks. I'm going to the dealer. Yes, I think it should be in warranty, now that I think about it. I was wary of going since I don't have another car, but it sounds like it's an easy fix for them.

Update: Dealer agreed to fix it for free. I went in today, they said there's a ring that is needed to attach the sensor, and it's missing. They ordered it and will charge me for it.

On the plus side, apparently they don't need to remove the bumper, they can do it from underneath the car.

Today I decided to try to fix it myself. It was easier than I thought.
I could reach the sensor from under the car (no need to lift it even). Nothing was missing afaict, so not sure what the dealer wanted to do.
I put some double-sided tape around the opening and then I pressed the sensor against it. Seems to stay well. If it falls again I might use glue.
