If I found myself in this position I would let a dealer fix it as the best solution. DIY I would spend quality time with the $25 TIS system searching for a procedure or TSB that may or may not exist.

There are threads that show the end result of prying and tugging but to my knowledge no one has posted Toyota information on how to do it. Based on the fact it has two large push in clips going into the driver's side sheet metal, I would assume you would need to access that area by removing the wheel and liner or possibly the headlight assembly.

Thanks for the pictures and info. I was able to see it has 3 screws and the 2 clips. The clips has to be the challenging part as it needs a strong hand pull from the iron frame cos i don't have the prying tool for it. I see no reason why they added them TBH. The 3 screw were enough.
