Default Q7 replacing air filter

Hi, I just bought a K&N air filter to replace the OEM one. I can't figure out how to open up the air box. There is the 2 clip at the top I loosen it but the bottom part won't open.

Anyone have the instruction ? Thank you.

Guys, I found a good video of how you can DIY replace the filter. It just took me 10 mins to replace it. Definately worth to change. Instantly I notice my car is running more responsive.

Here is the link.
