You don't have to remove just be careful
I tried to remove like at least 6 times but I wasn’t able to. Using tweezer, my nails, long nose pliers. There could be a lock but I gave up since I’m afraid if I put more force I might accidentally pull the wires. I’m able to remove the left and right analog stick with the back plate plugged, as mentioned, just be careful.
I was stuck on this step for a while - note that you’re only removing the little white plastic bit. The beige or yellowish plastic bit is attached to the board. I needed to use pliers to carefully grab just the white plastic bit and wiggle it side to side.

This is either incomplete or mistitled - it is a currently a back plate replacement guide.
At the conclusion of this how-to/walkthrough, most of the GamePad's hardware is still attached to the front plate, one half of the outer case.
and the front?
