Thank Jel. These instructions are great, but your definition of easy differs from my own. I thought I would share what I learned while trying to take out the dash. First pic is what those round plastic circles things look like from the back. You just dig your fingers around the back of the head and pull as hard as you can. I found turning it a little while pulling and rocking it back and forth works. You may want to wear gloves. My fingertips still hurt. The second and third pic show a piece that fell out of my dash when I removed the upper part of the lower driver side dash. I think a screw is supposed to connect to this but I have no idea where. If anyone knows then please post here. Fourth pic is the string that connects to the glove compartment. I didn't notice at first there is a little tooth holding it in place. If you poke the tooth from the inside then this part comes out easy. I don't have a picture of the trunk release but I found if you push in the teeth at the top and bottom then you can push the whole thing forward out of the dash then you can more easy remove the plug portion.
