Now you will need to 'unlock' the top and bottom of the base from each other. On the flat edge, there is a rectangle inset with one side cut out. Insert a metal spudger about 1/2'' in to the opening to toggle open an interior tab.
With the metal tool still inserted, use an opening tool between the black and silver sides to pry the base open.
