Dash Removal

I know this has to be previously posted somewhere but I can't find it anywhere. I am trying to get the center part of the dash off to remove the stereo but it just won't work. I opened the cup holder and removed those two screws. Then I pulled the plastic panel off below the steering wheel and removed that screw. I gave it some pretty good force trying to get it off there but I am afraid that I am going to break it. Is there another screw or what am I missing? Thanks in advance for your help.

None of what you did is part of the removal of the center dash section. On the right side where the Aux input jack is. Pop out the whole black section and there is a screw behind it...on the left side where the cigarette lighter is same thing. Then just pull gently.

Thanks for the help. Did the trick. Real easy install after I got past that. I knew I wasn't doing something right and I didn't want to tear anything up. Thanks.

The first time I did it nobody had done it before. I just inspected the entire dash several times until I noticed the slots at the bottom of those 2 black inserts. Figured they were there for a reason. I'm glad I could help.
