It snaps in place. The plastic that is part of the top is much stronger than the plastic tabs on the covers, so the covers will break first. I have installed/removed mine at least two dozen times over the last ten years with no issue other than some of the tabs on the cover bending, and I just bent them back. I may have replaced the latch cover once in that time, but I cannot recall. You can buy the rear covers as well, check the parts manual pdf for the part numbers. They are simply a cosmetic item.
