Need help removing star and silver trim from grill

Need to remove the part from a 2015 C217 so I can shove the front 360 camera back into its hole.

Part in question

I've managed to pop out the bottom clips as shown

I've tried pulling it out from here but there are more clips attaching it to the grill. These seem like the same ones I already undid from the bottom but they wont budge.

Circled here visible from the gap in the bottom of the trip

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

as far as I know the whole thing pulls out like the bottom they have the same clips all around. these are common clipe all over the body parts. The best way is to rip the part off in one hard pull. or you can play around with it and push them out from the back side with aq screw drivers

You travel to the west coast via I-40 at night and get behind a 18 wheeler who throws a thread into your front grill. Walla, quick removal over and done with.

Cost big bucks at Park Place Bodywerks in Ft Worth to fix and replace the front distronic sensors.

Not the reply your looking for. Sorry 'bout that.
