I can get the hex screws off and pry apart the plastic tabs on the bottom plate, but for the life of me I can't un-clip the back tabs.
Any ideas on where to press/pry?

Here's a YT vid on the disassembly, but the still picture shots with no commentary may not be what you need for a good walk-thru.
I don't have a Hub, but wish we all had a pic to make sure we're talking about the same piece.
Regardless, I'm gonna take a crazy shot at it. Let's Go!
We have two gray rectangles:
I think you're stuck here. (See the picture).
So, you took out the two hex screws, (two empty black holes on the Big Gray Rectangle), and you say you can't get further. Correct?
Instead of trying to remove the Big Gray Rectangle plate, first remove the Phillips screw in the middle holding the Small Gray Rectangle down.
Look at the next picture.
See how the Small Rectangle has a lip design that overlaps, and locks down our Big Gray Recky-reck?
You should be good from here.

Real issue: White Tabs won't release.
I had to do the same last night because the internal motor position A did not work. I ended up pushing a small screwdriver from in between the housing, not from the tabs since I felt that would deform the plastic even more.
Fun fact: to solve my encoder issue, I simply had to nudge the sensor a bit closer to the perforated wheel, using some tweezers. I wonder how it ever worked - or stopped working - in the first place.
