2020 CX-9 Rear Heater Control replacement

I was hoping somebody here knows how to replace the rear heater control (TN39-61-325) of a 2020 Mazda CX-9 Touring (with captain's chairs). I was able to pop off the console cover at the top, but the cover is still connected somehow at the bottom, which gives me little room to work. I then removed the screws at both sides of the heater control, but the control is still fixed in place. I couldn't figure out how to unlatch the clips at the bottom of the control, which I assume might be the problem. Any help would be much appreciated!

Back of the part (it seems to be connected to the car with (at least) screws on the sides and the 4 clips at the bottom):
