Dell Dimension 4100 case problem

I am trying to put a new CD drive in a Dell Dimension 4100. I need to get the right side panel off to access two of the 4 screws that hold the drive in. Anyone have any experience with this case and can tell me how to get the right side panel off?
 
Usually there are two buttons on the back, one on top and one on the bottom which you press simultaneously to pop the side open.
 
I don't have that model, but I have a dell. My dell has one screw for the cd drive, you take it out and the other 4 screws slide in a rail out the front of the case(once the front cover is off.)
 
nnnyyy gets the prize! I found a tech manual online for the Dimension 4100. After taking off the left side panel you have to unlatch 3 plastic catches that hold the front panel on. Then you remove 1 screw to remove the drive cage.
