I am removing my back pad to have it recovered.
After removing screws and hood release cap, do I pull down or push up to remove? Thank you in advance. |

I usually use needle-nose pliers or snap-ring pliers to unscrew the grommet. (And the other ones on the car for that matter.)
The bottom of the back pad slides forward, toward the front of the car. That gives you enough slack to push the pad downward, un-hooking the tabs on the back side of the pad from the brackets on the firewall. --DD |
