I have had a look around, there are many videos on Youtube showing how to remove roof consoles, but as you probably know none for the DS5. Can you post a couple of pictures and someone may be able to help :)

This is the one I need to remove. Somehow part of the hinge of my glasses has got inside the holder so I need to remove it otherwise it's new frames time

Can't help, but i would imagine the whole roof centre console was fitted in one go, already assembled, and is held in place by small clips.
I would think about usiing a small trim removal tool, carefully along the edge between roof lining and console and look to see if you can see said clips.

I agree with Skull here and this is where I would insert a plastic trim tool and prise it down carefully:

Try a small magnet wafted around inside the compartment, assuming that the pin is steel it may just catch it?
