HELP! Can't take off center trim between headlights

[k3v11n]

Im trying to change out my headlights but i cant seem to take off the center pladtic trim that sits on top of the bumper between the headlights. So I can't get access to the bottom corner bolt to the headlights. How many clips does this thing have? 2 round clips on each side, one in the middle and about 6 other types of clips? I can't seem to pull it out. *insert throwing purse joke here* thanks.

Look at it from the bottom. There are little brownish nubs sticking through the bumper cover. Squeeze the sides with some needle nose to unlock the fasteners. Pull up from the top the same time. Work from one side to the other.

Yes, squeeze, wiggle and pull. Pull hard straight up on the “L” looking corners carefully but very firmly. Hard to keep from breaking a clip but it isn’t a huge deal really.
