Are you trying to remove the entire under dash panel or just the black plastic part over the pedals?

I'm not familiar with the W201, but I'd bet its similar to the W124, were the black plastic is clipped to the dash lower panel and held to the floor with some plastic screw on thingys. There are two retainers -- one under the carpet and one up above the gas pedal on the W124. Once those are out, the panel reluctanly comes down at the firewall and forward at the top rear edge until you can bend it enough to clear the kick panel/footrest. Big wrestling job, it fits pretty tight.
