Fuel Filler Door Actuator Removal - HELP !!

Hi everyone. I need to replace the entire Fuel Filler Door Assembly on my C215. I don't want to break anything.. How do I disconnect what I am holding without breaking anything. I rotated it 45% and don't know what to do next and do not want to force it. Help!!

I will post what I finally found. I could not locate it. Search "fuel filler door assembly" in WIS and good luck sifting through thousand of documents. Knowng the EXACT keyword (which I did not!) made a difference. "Fuel Filler Flap" did the trick for me....

Sharing for anyone else who will someday wonder.

I tried the method.. but it's not budging and I am afraid to break things. It's hard to access due to the trunk assist mechanism.. but I will get there...
