Cowl Removal

I am replacing my factory antenna and need to get my cowl off. I took off the five (or so) screws on the outside, and then the 7 (or so) screws just below it under the hood, and now it jiggles a little bit on the ends. I did take off the wiper arms...what do I do now? Thanks!

Just bought 2,000 miles ago:
1995 F-150 XLT 4WD SWB
300 I6 5-speed

Cowl Removal

I seem to recall a couple of scews up toward the windshield or in the "field" (where the vent holes are) I have had mine off to replace the wiper motor and though a little tricky, it wasn't too tough to get it off I do know that you don't need to remove any other body parts...

I hope this helps,
