Now that you know so much you had to tape your head together, lets get to the meat and pa'taters of the deal.
Grab your trusty 4 way and just break the lug nuts loose.

If your arms get tired hire some neighborhood kids to jack it up for you. Kids are lazy these days and need to be reminded what a hard day's work looks like!

Once it's jacked up put it on jack stands for safety. Jacks can and do fail often! They're only a little oil and a valve. Valves break!
Now run your lug nuts all the way off and put them somewhere safe. Slip the wheel off and set it against a fence.

Take those out. The allen wrench needs to be 1/8".

Then slip a flathead screwdriver between the plastic and the metal then STOP. Put your hand over the plastic now or you'll be sorry.
Holding it? Good. Now go ahead and give it a gently pry.

It'll pop right off into your hand. Or your lap. Or the street next door.

Some people are like slinkys. Not worth much but funny as heck when pushed down stairs.
