Does anyone know how to actually remove the cover? Our 93 had a clear cover on it (that was ugly) and I finally found and bought the correct color one from someone on the forum here (bright aqua metallic), but I cannot figure out how to get to the screws. Is there some kind of trick to it?

It is not too hard get on the ground and pull up the bottom of the cover, you should see two screws ,Stock are Torx- T-15 or could
phillips screws. remove screws and lift and pull out.
