How to remove MAP sensor cover

How does the plastic cover that's on top of the MAP sensor come off? I thought it would be like the engine cover, or air cleaner box, but it just doesn't seem to be the case.

If you just need to get to the plug, you just pry it a bit and reach in...not too hard. Getting the cover completely off would include pulling out the hoses/cables, and...I'm forgetting...releasing maybe plastic fasteners holding it down? 1/4 turn fasteners perhaps?

Anyway, if you really need to get that cover off, remove the cowl and start digging. Should be apparent pretty quickly.

That's what I figured. But I was a bit hesitant, because I didn't want to break it.
