Anyone removed the center dash speaker cover?
 
Trying to remove that speaker but having difficulty with the cover. It has 2 long prongs towards the inside of the car. That end pries up easily. The other end has the climate sensor and appears to extend somewhat into the dash. How is that end attached? Thanks! Any pics would be really useful.

It has been a while, but as I recall I just gently pried it upwards with a plastic trim removal tool.

Agreed with Ken

Thanks guys. What does the small end look like? Is it a long tab? How does it attach to the dash? I am using trim tools, so I'm cautious with the approach, but it seems to require more force than I would expect.

It did take more force than I thought, but I got it up with a plastic trim tool as well.

The smaller end curved to fit the edge of the dash. Use your plastic trim removal too, to pry that end up as well.
