The instructions say to insert a putty knife wrapped in tape into the retention clips that hold the panel in place. Is there a trick to this? I've found the clips and I'm applying pressure with the putty knife but the clips don't seem to release. :confused: Help! Thanks!

Look at the panel and see if there are not two screws holding it in at the bottom. Remove them and the panel will drop out. Let us know if this works. Thanks
