Pollen Filter Change

I want to change the pollen filter on my 2002 Focus

I think there are 2/3 clips on the plastic "scuttle panel" cover. The one sited nearest to the middle of the windscreen

won't release by tugging at it. Is it a clip like the others or is it held down with a bolt. If so, How do I release it.

Is the bolt head underneath the circular coin sized plastic "flush" panel (which seems to form part of the panel) ?

I've looked at some very fuzzy vids, but can't seem to work this out.

I understand I may need to reseal the panel with a new seal. Should I fit the seal to the screen first, or the panel ?

    screen doesnt need a new seal as standard per this, but you do need to remove the scuttle panel and then the pollen filter housing.

    There is one screw under the little plastic cover, other than that it's just clipped.

    Apply the new foam seal to the plastic panel
