The manual doesn't have instructions for the rear duct, but here they are for the front. The rear is probably a similar procedure.

You have to remove the rear fender wells and then un-snap the duct latches from inside the fender well area. It's a PITA to un-snap them, but it can be done with the right screwdrivers and a little persistince. (Removing the rear wheels is also required.)

They clip in on the inside and outside. To keep from removing the fender wells to access them, I slid a 3x5 card in and worked them until the snaps rode over the card, then they popped out with a minimum or trouble.
