You have to pry it out. There's a tool in the trunk with a bladed tip on one end that you can use for that purpose. Or use a screwdriver. The clips are a the top and bottom.

I think it's awesome that we ask on a forum instead of reading the manual. Seriously, no sarcasm.

I know this is an old thread, but I was wondering if you were able to get the small piece of the grill removed that covers the two hook. The Owner's Guide has a picture, but it's not clear as it appears to be a "pry and twist" type of action.
