Default Roof console removal (without torx screws)

Hi All!
Read various threads on here describing fix for sunroof deflector motor. Can't seem to remove roof center console as every thread describes torx screws that need to be taken out (after popping out the interior light lenses) and then the whole assembly drops.....mine does not have any torx screws anywhere. I can get the rear to pop out (the front close to windshield seems to be hinged) but from there I can't get it to drop and feels like if I pull any harder going to snap something....tried to find some tabs that need to be pressed. Anyone have any tips on this or similar setup? Thanks in advance.

The 2 torx should be at the front nearest to the mirror
