I just did it the other day
Start by removing the rubber molding that goes from left to right of the car and across the cover then undo the two screws that hold the cove on.
Pull the complete cover towards the front of the vehicle to break the seal, notice that there are three small clamps going across the cover (between the cover and back of motor) Take a small flat tip screw driver and pop them forward they'll snap off little bar thats molded into the cover but remain attached to the car. Thats all it took.

Does anyone know how to remove the cabin filter on a 99 SL500?  I know where the housing is, the problem is getting the lid all the way UP to remove the filter...
 
Thanks
