Air filter question ...... stymied by the simpleist thing

Newly acquired 2000 S80 and I'm doing all the service. Cannot get the cover off the air filter box. I've unclipped the 3 latched that run along the front but it's apparently hung up along the back. I don't see any kind of clip or anything else that needs undoing?

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance for any help.

If it is anything like our V70 (and I think it is) you hinge up the front once those clips are undone, then slide the whole top to the right (if it isn't the left) and it will unlatch at the back. Notice how it is constructed where the plastic tabs enter the slots on the back side. Getting it back in is a little cumbersome as well.
