Need help with engine cover

I have 96 E 150 conversion van, I'm having trouble getting the engine cover off, the top clamps are no problem it's the bottom ones I can't figure out and how they 'unclamp'.
Also what and where is a good place to run inverter wires thru fire wall/ engine cover ?
Thanks

hello

i owned a 95 and still own a 97 so i assume since they are the same a 96 is to, you have to flip down turn counter clockwise and pull outward. it helps to put seats back as far as possible when actually removing the cover. i have my inverter wires under the passenger side bottom of the engine cover.

good luck
