2nd Generation Gauge Pod, How to Remove A-Pillar Cover

Hey so i bought an A-Pillar pod yesterday for my Boost, Oil pres and AFM gauges yesterday.
Does anybody know how to remove the A-Pillar plastic cover so that i can mount it better and drill holes, etc to run the hoses and wires for the gauges?

Seriously, just pull on it. Sit in the drivers seat and pull on it towards your right shoulder or so from the top.

The small metal clips may stay lodged in the a-pillar. Pull them out and put them back on the pillar cover before replacing it.
