Removing rear bumper plastic cover

Hi. Can someone provide basic tips on how to remove the plastic cover from the rear bumper, please? I suspect I should start by removing the two side trim pieces, but how do they come out? Thanks.

Did that pdf I posted not help?

Edit: I never really looked at it before. It didn't really say a whole lot and might only be good up until MY99 so maybe it didn't help much.

Ooops. My bad....totally missed the pdf file below your post. Sorry about that. I will print it and try it.
The antena fix worked very well. Bougth the Euro rubber piece from the dealer...paid $15 bucs...removed all parts...installed piece..trimmed excess, screwed all back together. Will post a pic soon.
The next challenge is finding the Star that goes on the plastic engine cover. Thanks!

I think most people will say to find a junkyard if you can. I'm not sure if I've seen another way to get one unless you do something custom.
