Dont see where the screws are for the inside panel. Dont want to bust anything by just pulling. Where do I start?

There's no trick. It just goes in. Keep trying, you'll get better.

Theres a trick. A small piece of the metal internal cover. Cut it off and the damn thing just slides in. After 3 hours,tore up knuckles, I lost my cool, cut it off, and 10 minutes later was DONE. Forgot to take pics though. Sorry. Its the "contact point" on the side away from the hinges. Still bolted solidly.
