Default Presario 5000: How to get at 3.5" drives?

Seems like both 5.25 and 3.5" devices are on some sort of clips/rails that need
tb squeezed from the front of the case.

But I cannot figure out how to get the face of the case off. There is some
clear plastic that forms a separate part of the face which, if removed, would
seem to give the required access - but that seems clipped into place by
inaccessible clips.

This is a small-ish case with a face that is wider than the body of the case and
which contains a storage area on the bottom for a few CDs. To the right of the
two 3.5" bays, are two USB receptacles.

Anybody know the secret?
