Step 2

Remove the five 14.4 mm T10 Torx screws.

Edit

There are NO torxscrews. You have to pull out the rubber grille grips that are inside the screw holes FIRST, then use a regular sized Phillips head screwdriver to remove the cover. No Torxscrewdiver needed. I found this out after I had already purchased one from you guys.
