1996 upper plume removal question

I had a rat get into my wires for my fuel injectors and I cant reach them to fix . I removed the front and side bolts but it seems that I may have a bolt maybe on the in side middle where it impossible to reach. Does anyone know how to get to it. I cant remove the plume and all it wants to do is wiggle side to side.

Yes there are 6 bolts connecting the upper to the lower and the center bolt that seems to be hidden really isn't there is a slot between the center runners. To get at it you need a long T40 Torx bit or a 6" long 1/4 drive extension and socket with a small torx bit taped into it.

Thanks. I had just found that out. I can see this is going to be fun for what should be simple. I have to wait till Thursday so I will update you once I get it done.
