Hey there! I tried to open the clips but it only came out a little, I tried real hard but it didn't, my issue was that the scroll wheel was going weirdly when I would scroll. I found a way to fix it without opening it! You just have to lift your LMB (left mouse button) and you will see the place where the scroll wheel is attached to, take some WD-40 and spray it there, then flip your mouse and go to a flat surface and make sure that the mouse is lying on the wheel, then spin it around and after a while the scroll wheel will work good as new! I hope this helped. Thanks!
