Default 1999 Accord EX kick panel

I have a 1999 Accord EX.
I need to replace the ABS control module. I understand it is behind the drivers side kick panel. To remove it, is the panel just pried off? If so, any tips on pry points etc,?

Look to see if the kick panel goes underneath the plastic piece that is on the bottom of the door opening. If it goes underneath, you may need to remove the screws holding the door sill trim, then you can pop out the kick panel. Just carefully pry on the plastic to prevent breaking it. I try to gently pry and keep moving on the piece until I find an area that doesn't flex as much, and that usually gets me close to the clip. The panel pops out towards the direction of the passenger side of the car.

The door sill on mine has no screws but does pop up and off, The kick panel has two snap fingers - one on the upper back and another lower down. The bad news is that my info on the ABS module being on the drivers side was wrong - it's on the passenger side. Found it and will order a used unit and install it.
Thanks for the help.
