I have a 2007 Hot Springs Vanguard spa that has a slow leak in the back right hand corner of the spa. I suspect it's in the Moto-Massage jet because it stops leaking when the water level gets just below that point. My question is, can the outside panels be removed in order to repair it. There are no screws and I don't see any staples even though I have read that they are held in place with staples. Do the panels just pry off? Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
