Hi Chuck,

See attached image.

Air grate (1)
push out with plastic wedge.
Screws (2 and 3)
screw out, hold cover down for access.
Screw (4)
screw out.
Screws (5, 6 and 7)
screw out (8 mm ).
Nut (8)
screw off (10 mm ).
Cover (9)
pull down and remove.
Reinstall
in opposite order.

It's been awhile since I took my lower cover off, but I could swear that the two screws referenced as items 2 and 3 above were actually a type of spring loaded clip that hooked / snapped onto two metal brackets mounted in the dash. I gently persuaded the carpeting away from the seam between the lower panel and dash using a clean putty knife so I could see in there. I think I used a flat blade screwdriver to disengage the clips. I could be wrong, like I said, it's been awhile and I don't have any pics. Maybe you could take some good digital pictures of this and send to me? I'd like to add them to my website (with your permission, and credit for the photos would go to you).

Pete
