Just pull on it... I started at the back left corner, and worked my way around... It's held on with rubber Grommets...

A little WD40 when you put it together makes it easier to take off next time..

Be sure when putting it back on that you are sure to line it up with the throttle body at the center in back with the opening on the cover and create a good seal
This is where the air flows from the filters to the engine.

WD40 will help you get it on but dries up quickly, but a little white grease on the clips will help you get it on and off later much better.
