Default Vacuum Brake Booster removal

I'm new to posting a question. I have a 2004 C5 convertible with a leaking master cylinder, I can see the fluid going down the firewall behind the carpet. I was informed by the dealer I will need to replace both master cylinder and vacuum booster to repair. The problem is I"m having a hard time trying to remove the 15mm bolt behind the telescope steering mechanism - the one on the upper right as you are facing the steering wheel. Does anyone have a detail instruction on how this can be doing? It has only 40,000 miles can not figure out any other way to remove the booster. If someone can point me in the right direction - I really would appreciate it. Thanks

PM me your email address and I'll forward you the service manual r&r procedure for the brake booster.
