The car is so rare, I have to buy almost all my parts in the US . Chevy ended serving Europe in 2015.

Looking at the yellow clip it appears to have a release tab on the top and it should open up like a book.
Never really looked at one but by the picture that's what I see.

Or maybe it just twists off. The rod appears to be threaded all the way to the end.

Always afraid to break something if it's made out of plastic

That white part should be pretty much "standard/generic" (like Opel/Saab etc).
