Default Putting in new clock

I just got my new clock today for a 1980, I took out the four screws on the face piece. Are there any screws behide the side carpets that also hold on the face piece? Because it's still really tight.

Thanks
Rick

With the screws out & the radio undone, it's possible to lift the bottom of the bezel up over console then let the top drop to clear the console light at top of bezel & out it comes. Some take the console top off.
