any help on how to remove the rear vent cap appliques? I know there is a screw at the top, and three tabs holding on the side, but how do you remove the tabs off the body of the car? any help would be appreciated. thanks

do i just pull it off once I unscrew the top screw? sorry to be asking so much, just try to do everything myself, and just can't figure this one out. don't want to break the tabs. want to get the smooth ones, probably just go to junk yard and pick up the escalade ones, just want to paint mine for now. thaks, any help is appreciated

from what I have seen, screws and just the metal tabs slide out once you push it back far enough.
