UX2 DIY repair - how to open it

Hi folks,


I have a UX2 which has a flaky line out, and instead of trying to send it in for repair (I'm sure it's far out of warranty and would cost a fortune), I'd rather just crack it open and replace the 1/4" jack myself.  Thing is... I'd rather not literally *crack* it open.  Anyone have any tips on how to (gently) open the case to get to the innards?  I can't seem to find any obvious means to do so.


Thanks!

 

EDIT

After trying desperately to pry the thing open with a putty knife (ala mac mini), I finally figured it had to be held together by the nuts on the 1/4" jacks.  I was right -- unscrew the nuts, remove the plastic pieces surrounding the jacks, and remove the four screws on the XLR connectors.  That's it.  I'm glad I didn't apply too much pressure trying to pry it open!
