Cash for clunkers got me motivated because I couldn't get $4500 for a 94 Firebird with engine problems any other way. I got the base GS, no air, radio, nothing. My problem is trying to get the face plate off in order to install a radio. I have seen the post that says "remove the fascia" and diagram that shows the position of the clips with the caution to use a thin screwdriver with tape on it and the surface you pry against. I tried with no success and did leave a small mark on the dash both places I tried. I know what to do but I don't know how to do it without doing damage. What is the trick???

Thanks,
Rick
