That upper panel the way to remove it with out that metal clip flying out and risk damaging the panel. Is to take and push hazard light switch. Then use screw driver and push down on the center part there’s a slot there. And then use trim tool to carefully pry on the left and right sides. But shouldn’t matter its LX model.
