I think you take the stereo out and you should see some form of screws.

lol...the explanation in haynes is useless! i found this one which is better

however, it doesnt mention the 4 control cables that are connected at the back the control panel for heater flow, temp etc and wiring block for hazard and heater air speed illumination bulb rack. It easy really but tedious not to break anything cos it all plastic. just take ur time and have patience especially when puttin back in if u plannin on paintin cos it so easy to scratch it and ruin the perfect finish with little touchups.
