Default Radiator replacement 1996

Well I have the fan shrod off the six bolts on the ends , the air filter housing and the hoses off. What else is needed to lift out the radiator?
Seems like the whole plastic top wants to come out together but something is keeping it from doing so. What am I doing wrong?

Don't forget the 6 little screws down beside the radiator and shroud. Not easy to get to from top. Reverse screws on reinstall facing inside out from underneath. Makes access alot easier in the future.
