Having trouble opening the plastic cover where the ECU is...

This might be dumb, but i am having this problem. The sticky said "quick twist of two screws" I don't have screws or anything like that. I just have those flat type snap ons. I tried to get them off, but they wouldn't come off. I even tried to rotate them, but still no luck..Help would be appreciated! thanks! It's a 95 max SE by the way if that helps at all...

I think you just take a screwdriver and pry up on the snap-on tops until they pop off. Or in my case, I just grap both ends of the cover and pull out. The cover comes off and snaps back on. It's easy once you take it off once.

no no no man, it took me 30 min til i figured it out too.
u MUST turn em ( dunno how much) and try pulling em out at same time too, they will pop out when they are unlocked.
