HELP! Radio removal - dashboard built like Fort Knox!

I know I\'m not really in the correct forum, but I\'m trying to grab the attention of the dealers amongst us to try and get me some advice. :?

I\'m trying to get my Wave radio out, and I\'ve basically taken all 4 screws out of the 2 vertical silver pieces which hold in the radio, heater and switch panel. This allows you to move the silver pieces around a bit, but you can\'t move them enough to undo the screws partially hidden behind them which hold the radio in place. I\'ve removed all the screws I can find on the dash, but the only thing I can do is pull the middle section of the dash about 1/2 an inch out - not enough for what I need. I am not confident about playing too much as a) I don\'t want to damage any of the plastics, and b) I\'d rather not have the passenger airbag explode in my face! :o

Can anyone get me some technical advice as to how to remove these silver pieces so I can get on with my ICE project...? I would really appreciate any info given. }>

Cheers guys (and gals!)
