I am trying to remove old exhaust fan in my bathroom. I took the grill and motor apart but I do not know how to remove the housing assembly. The reason I want to replace it because the higher cfm fan and motor (70 cfm) I bought is larger than the space where the fan fits. I am including the pictures of the fan housing.
