Removing dash trim panel help please.
Hi all,
Trying to remove the dash trim panel from the secret compartment is just not going well so I am hoping some has some suggestions. This is a 2013 Cooper. There are 2 youtube videos that talk about removing this piece but neither actually show it. I feel like the plastic is going to snap into pieces and I guess I am not getting how to get the panel loose from the clips. Does anyone have a video that actually shows the process?
Thanks

Step 1 is easy. Remove two torx screws.
Step 2: Pull and pry until something breaks.
I'll keep trying to figure it out and let you know what I come up with.....
Back side of R56 secret compartment lid. There are 3 tabs along the top.
