I'm in serious need of a helping hand (or at least a point in the right direction).

I have an MB-D200 grip and accidentally broke one of the clips that retain the batteries inside. Evidently from researching the web, this is/was a very common problem with these units.

I managed to track down replacement clips, but I can't seem to figure out (for the life of me) how to crack open the grip itself. The clip installation itself seems rather easy to do, but after loosening virtually every screw in the unit, I can't open this thing up.

Anyone knowledgable in this area??

Apparently, there are more screws under the rubber cover.

Thank you so much for the help...you're a lifesaver!!

Would you believe I had every screw out except the one under the Nikon nameplate at the bottom? LOL!

These people at Nikon are pretty clever when it comes to hiding screws.
