Brand new to the MB world and this is my very first post. I probably shouldn't admit this here, but I've been driving and maintaining a Jaguar for the past 20 years.

Please, someone, anyone -- How do you/does one remove the molded plastic black/silver cowling on top of the motor in order to replace the air filters?? I've got the front piece off, easily enough, but I don't see any clips or other fasteners that secure the air filter covers on each side. Talk about loss of a kingdom for want of a nail....

Appreciate any assistance.
