You shouldn't have to take off the cover if they installed the mounting plate. You should be able to just push up on the stat. It's not easy to take off the cover. Try using a small screwdriver. I think they wasted more time trying to get it apart to mount it. It would have been faster and easier to use the mounting plate
How’s about a close-up showing the thermostat before you do anything? Want to know how to remove the cover.

Hey Rich, I installed a Micro-Air EasyTouch thermostat and love that thing, you might consider one in the future.
Amazing, factory started install before lunch and finished after.... LOL!
