2007~2015 How to remove CX-9 Rear HVAC Control Panel and Vents?

[djc6]

I need to remove the back panel of my 2010 CX-9 center arm rest, where the HVAC controls and rear vents are. Does anyone know how to remove it?

Here is a video, but there must be other steps as it looks too easy to remove:

Guys I just did this today and it couldn't be easier. You don't need any manual or anything, it's a piece of cake.

You need:
1. A headlamp or flashlight
2. A philips screwdriver
3. The center console rear panel assembly with new vents. It does not include the HVAC controls or anything though. Can be bought from Mazda dealer easily.

Step by step instructions:
1. Put on the headlamp and hop in the driver seat
2. Open the armrest doors and locate the top edge of rear panel assembly.
3. Grasp it firmly and pull back toward the rear seats. You will note by looking at the replacement panel...
