 That's how it appears to be with the HSC initially:

 They are stuck as if glued or welded on! This is like a

        I've not followed this from the start so I don't
        know how deep into the HSC90 you want to
        go, but the steps for upgrading an HSC90 to
        an HSC95 may help.
        1. Power off.
        2. Turn the nylon catches on the card cage cover
             1/4 turn each and pull cover up and out.
        3. Swap modules to taste.
        For removing the rear door:
        1. Open door.
        2. Release hinge pin by pulling down on release lever.
        3. Slide door out and lift up: do not bend bottom pin.
        I've never (knowingly) seen an HSC6x or HSC9x so
        all I can say is that it sounds pretty easy so I
        assume you are doing something other than
        swapping modules?
        The IPB suggests that the side panels "hang" on
        the sides and, once the top is off, will slide upwards
        until they are clear of their "hooks". There may be some
        obvious screws involved too (it's not immediately clear
        whether this is a different cab variant/rev or not).
