Default hyperflash bypass install problem

I'm installing a hyperflash bypass unit.I'm having a problem removing the iats cover plate to unplug to access the screw behind it.It keeps catching on the front dash panel.don't want to force it .Any tips or info from previous installs would be greatly appreciated.It doesn't mention removing the center console cover, but i think i might have too.I'm using the instructions downloaded from the RadioFlyer site where I purchased the bypass unit.

Here are instructions from Vette Essentials ("VE") re: how to remove the radio bezel, etc.: http://www.vetteessentials.com/instr...zel_howto.html

If you will follow these instructions all the way through step 4, or step 5 if you decide to remove the driver's side knee bolster, these instructions should fix you up.

And here are instructions from JW Motoring's website as well: http://www.shop.jwmotoring.com/C5-LE...ashHarness.htm

If you do want to remove the radio bezel and have an automatic transmission, you'll need to remove the AT shift ****, which is a special step also covered in the VE instructions.
