The people on this board seem to be very understanding about seemingly dumb questions, but I was still too embarrassed for many months to post this problem with my 2007. I couldn't figure out how to get to the passenger compartment fuses. I could remove the access panel, but could not figure out how to remove the black cover to the fuse box.
I went in for my 6 month oil change and asked the Ford service adviser how to remove the cover. He couldn't figure it out either! He said he would ask one of the techs. When I returned to pick up my car, the adviser said it's easy if you know how.
On the chance that there might be others out there who were also too embarrassed to ask, here's the scoop--There is one tang on the left side and one tang on the right side of the cover. You release one of the tangs, and the cover pops off.
