Upfitter install help?

OK, I screwed up and didn't get it from the factory but I did end up buying the add-on. I've read all? of the previous threads about it taking only a hor in to install and I must commend you all! I've hit a dead end. I've removed the left side end cover and the lower panel from the steerrng wheel easy enough but I can't see any way to mount the relay box to OEM holes. From the left side there is a small 2"x2" box directly in the way. It seems like the best way would be to remove the trim holding the dimmer switch but don't want to snap a high priced piece of plastic. Any ideas? I have the Lariat Ult pkg so maybe that's why it's so crowded. Haven't even looked at the switch mount yet....
Thanx

If you say don't ask after figuring it out, you know we're going to ask! Haha.

OK, I guess I deserve it... unclipped the small box in the way, unclipped the relay box from the frame and mount the frame first, then the relay box and finally the small box again. Funny how a little break will let you see things in a whole different light...
Then it started again with gettng my ham-fist up to the connector. Oh well, all done now and all works AOK.
