Help - rear console removal for power outlets

I can't seem to remove the console. the top part easily removes but at the bottom on both sides it is stuck and I don't want to break anything. It appers to be clipped to something. What is the trick to get this off? thank for any help you can give me.

Yes, the bottom part is a little challenging. Don't force anything. It helps to know where it clips in. I'll see if I can find you some photos.

Here, study the following photographs well. See where the tabs are and the slots that receive them. Then you'll know where to insert your screwdriver to gently help you remove the rear panel.

at the bottom part, slip a knife or other firm tool (no jokes, you guys!) into the gap and pry gently.
