I am stuck !!!! 140 dash removal. 1996 s320

[gvanhouten]

Okay so here goes. I found out my evaporater is leaking. Took out the blower motor and nice trail of dye from the housing back into the evaporater. The car only has 29,000 miles on it and after much research this is very common for the 140 chasis.

My problem is I am having problems getting the center console wood out and I am not going to break it. Secondly under the speaker covers on the dash are screws that I need to access. The trim covering the speaker I believe the A frame trim I cannot figure out how to get it off. Again I do not break things to figure out how they work. As you know MB is to expensive to go that route. Can anyone help me figure this out with some pics. Also the bottom of the dash there is suppose to be something latch to remove the bottom cloth portion. I cannot figure out how this works either. HELP!!!
