Hi,
Pretty sure you need to delicately push the little parts in the notches. I think
there are also on the other side.

Thanks for the reply, Nicolas! Sadly, I have tried pushing, pulling, prying at
those points and it's not working for me. There are also 2 little slots on
the bottom of the part where I tried inserting a knife point and gently prying;
still no success. But I really appreciate your reply!

They are rather difficult to take apart - you have to push in the pin with one
blade, pry out the frame with another one, and preferably push out the bottom
with a third. Then repeat with the other pins. And then start from the beginning,
because as soon as you touch the second pin, the first will slip back in. It's
a nightmare, in other words, that involves lots of wiggling. Not sure how better
to explain it. But here's a pic, maybe that helps a bit.
Good luck,
Patrick
