How do you remove the tow hook door and then replace it?

Carefully...

I use a small screw driver and carefully pry it open from the left side. Just be aware not to force it too hard, and note how it comes out so you can reinstall it properly.

Don’t risk damaging it with a screwdriver. The Manual indicates how you gently push in from the side of the right top area. Check the manual for the diagram. There are also videos on YouTube showing it. I haven’t tried mine but there appear to be tabs of a sort on it and it needs to be moved so as to not break those off.

Feel free to try the way it's shown in the manual and report back. I've removed mine several times for track days and the easiest way is with a small screwdriver or trim removal tool. I've watched a buddy break one of the tabs, and other drivers struggle when trying to follow the manual. YMMV.

By following the instructions and pushing in on the upper right corner, it doesn’t work, will have to use the small screwdriver method.

So I recommend you remove it once, out in the wild you can use your house keys to pry it out, very hard using your finger tips to pry it open.
