Default D2 dash removal

I am trying to remove the center section of the dash on my 04.
I have already removed the slide out cup holder(6 screws) and radio, with 2 visible screws below the radio opening.
What else holds it?
It looks like there's screws behind the clock, and door unlock switch, and the buttons on the other side(defrosters, hill descent)
How do those buttons, clock come out?
I don't want to break anything.
Thanks for any help

I need the center section out.
I plan on moving the front and rear defrost switches, hazard, and hill descent to the right side of the heater/ac controls.
The power lock button to the left side.
Leave the clock out, mount the oil pressure gage in the clock opening.
Mount my UltraGage on the coin tray below it.

They apparently come out the way I thought they did.
They are all extremely tight.
Even the radio was a struggle to pull out (2 radio tools and unlocked it, but was rock solid).
Thanks alot for posting the Rave pages.
I have it on my phone, so was able to quickly look at it.
But, normally, it takes a very long time to find things(I need to download it to my laptop).
Regardless, thank you for posting that, it answered my question quickly, as I'm working on it now.

A 4lb club hammer OR a lot of time and patience, probably something we both don't have too much of

Good...now I don't feel so bad

I've taken out numerous radios over the years, and I've never had one be so hard to get out, and after the pins had unlocked too.
