Okay, this is one of those easy ones where you are afraid you are going to break something. Don't worry. You literally just grab and twist the thing off. A small plastic tab on the riser will break off. Who cares. If you have little girl hands, use a pair of channel locks.

the easiest thing to do is not twist at all.

Grab the top of the riser and pull it towards the front of the car. Don't pull up just rotate top towards bumper

It will pop right out and not break.
