Should just pull straight of mate. First time mine were pretty stubborn. After that a bit of force will get them off.

2 movements, grab and pull, most blokes should be pretty good at this ;)

I'm just wondering why this thread is in a forum sponsor area?

Are you trying to get to the radio? 2012s have no screws behind the knobs, the whole panel just pulls off.

If they are similar to the 2010 you need to turn the knobs all the way to the left and then you should be able to pull them off

This is correct pulled mine off last weekend.
Start pulling from the top near the clock.
