Tailgate inside panel removal

Anyone know how to pop off the plastic panel on the inside of the tailgate? Can't figure out how it's attached. I did remove the two screws under the little panels, but the plastic piece doesn't seem to want to give, where are the other fasteners hiding?

Thanks

Those two screws are all you need to remove. You simply have to pull the panel hard enough to make it pop off the plastic clips.

+1 what rkw said,
I just did that today. Once you remove the screws, just pull hard enough.
