I have exactly the same plastic towel rail as you in my two bathrooms (house is about 18 years old). One of the handrails has been pulled away from the wall by a few mm so I want to repair the handrail. I have spent hours trying to get the large circular cover off by turning and pulling the cover and by pressing the tab up and down. All I managed to achieve is breaking off one of the tabs. Have you by any chance managed to solve this problem? Not a Handyman.

The plastic tab tag thing has nothing to do with getting it off the wall. What he did was use a bread and butter knife to pop out the chrome dress ring out and away from the plastic cup. He then slipped the knife between the gyprock and the plastic cup to pop off the mounting wall bracket, taking care not to damage the gyprock. The key is in the dress ring and sliding it off the cup. Electrical just got back to me and said the most they can provide is a single power point on the Bedroom 1 side of that wall.
