Use a Jimmy to lift the cover directly up off of the locating pins.
Though a metal opening tool is shown in the image, we recommend using plastic opening tools to minimize any cosmetic damage.
Remove the back cover.
If you encounter resistance when lifting the cover, revisit the screws to see if any of them are still threaded on to the device.
