Need some bowtie help

Call me a noob but I do not know how to take off the front or rear bowties. 2010 model I know there are studs on the rear but how do you get to them? How do you get the front bowtie off?

Thanks
Alex

For the rear bowtie the best thing is to use a hairdryer to heat it up for about 5+ minutes. Then get some twine, dental floss or some other type of very thin string and place it behind the bowtie. Then begin a saw like motion to loosen the 3M tape. Bowties sometimes have two posts on the back of them so you will likely have to approach it from the opposite side as well. Once you loosen it up a bit you should be able to pull it off with you hands.

Front bowtie, I just wrapped a wash cloth around it and pulled. Popped right off.

Rear bowtie, goo gone and dental floss
