Alright, I unscrewed the 2 side screws, and 4 vent screws, and it seems like there are 2 clips or screws still holding the dash pad on towrds the center. I tried prying off the trim directly below the dash pad, but it didn't come easy, so I left it alone and thought Id ask first.

Also, anyone know where I can order a replacement pad? This one is cracked in a few places, and I'd rather have a new one than repair this one....

Thanks for the help. I knew to pull forward, but i'll have to search for those 7mm screws next time I get the chance. Good ol' 7mm....

no prob the reason i said to pull toward you is cause i cracked mine trying to pull upward to replace the speakers.....i was furious.

Yeah, I found one on Ebay, and will probably start looking in the junkyards here before I bid on it. They shouldn't be TOO hard to find, but you know how it goes when you need something specefic...
