ask the dealer (Parts dept.) for a exploded view of the the cover. Or see if they have one to look at.

HI. I did that job to my 92 Saturn several years ago. I had the same trouble--I was using a Haynes manual also. I ultimately found that there was one capscrew which was rather well-hidden. I found it by tracing over every inch of the perimeter of the upper and lower covers--they are interlocked so you can't remove one without the other, if I recall correctly. Anyway, I recalled my frustration when I read your post, and thought I would mention it. I don't recall needing any special tool, but that dang capscrew was well-hidden. Good luck!
