Wheel Question?

This is basic I know, but bear with me and my obvious ignorance. My truck is a 2002 F250 SD. It has chrome wheels. There a plastic caps covering the wheel lug nuts.

My question is: How do I remove the cap to get access to the lug nuts?

It looks as though there may be multiple tabs that need to be depressed with a screwdriver to release the cover? Appreciate it!

Is there anything in the owner's manual? Just wondering. Probably not, it's a secret these days.

I use a large flat blade screwdriver. Stick it in the slot between cap and wheel and pry it or sort of pop it off. It can take a little force. There are no tabs to depress. The cap just pops on and off.

My factory lug wrench under the hood has a lip on it to grab that little slot to pop the center caps off.
