Default Solar sensor 2003 4.2 L S-type

Hi
I am planning on replacing the solar sensor and wondered if ppl had any hints on removing the demister cover. It seems to clip in and you simply lever it out however i obviously don't want to damage the mountings. I have procured all the necessary parts but just want to be sure before starting.

Thanks

You have to remove the pillars first. Read up on JTIS. Don't be surprised if the demister cover breaks when attempting to remove. This part becomes so hard and brittle after being exposed to the sun all these years.

Yup I have the JTIS, and suspected it may break - yay - however I was wondering if there were any tricks to removing it without breaking it.
