Knob missing for interior fuse box - How to open?

Hello,

I have a 2007 Honda Fit standard that is still going strong.

When I went to change a fuse, I found out that somewhere along the line the knob on the interior fuse panel (above the coin holder) broke off or fell off.

I've ordered a replacement panel, but how do I get the fuse box open without the knob?
The attached photos show a whole panel, and another has the knob missing. For me, there is an empty hole in the middle, but the two slots on the sides are filled, because the latch was turned when the knob broke off.

Thanks!
JJ

It is held in by the white clips. The knob acts like a little lock and since yours went bye bye, just pull out from the top and the cover will come right off.

Thanks for the information!
When I tugged originally, there seemed to be something holding it and I stopped because I thought I would break it. (I thought the knob must have been in lock position when it fell off so I would break whatever was holding it in place.)

I don’t think it’s worth replacing. If you go to a junk yard and can find one really cheap ok. But the cover is 100% held in by the clips and the knob doesn’t really do anything. It will not rattle or anything with the knob missing.
