Airscape:

That was the key!! For the life of me I could not get the radio bezel off the car. But your suggestion to remove the radio cage did the trick. Once i released the cage the bezel dislodged like magic.

The only two pieces now holding me up are these: I got the ashtray, airbag, and lighter lower cabinets out of their slots. I found how to remove the silver front from the airbag compartment. But for the life of me I cannot figure out how the silver front comes off of the cigarerete lighter compartment and the sliding tray compartment.

Airscape or anyone else who have painted these pieces could you tell me how they come off
