I have been looking for this info or some time. Now I know where the remaing screws are located, not just the one I found on my own.

oh and lower your stearing wheel all the way down.

it takes me about 20 seconds to take off and put on my trim molding.. i dont have any screws in .

Your tape was most likely eaten by the cassette player. This happens because the tape heads and rollers are sticky or dirty. While you are in there, clean the rollers and the tape head throughly with a Q-tip and rubbing alcohol. This should help. Oh wait that must be a transport problem because there is no tape with that adapter. Get one of those FM Ipod adapters that transmit your music to the FM radio there is no reason to be using that cassete deck at all unless you have cassettes that you want to listen to but I doubt that you would have any. Mine also has the stock radio, there are collectors looking for that radio, you could probably get enough for it on ebay to buy yourself a nice new aftermarket radio with CD player. Bezel Adapters for installing new radios are also on ebay. If its a transport problem I doubt you could find anyone that could fix it. Seems like the more you mess with those the worse they get

Hey are you in the Chambersburg area?, If so I'm alittle north of you. But any way I don't think there is any more screws either. Probably a few clips holding it though that should just pull out. Here is a diagram of the dash:

Just my opinion but...

If youve already got everything pulled apart... why not just upgrade from cassette player to a nice deck with an aux input...? There are some good cheap ones out there....

Sorry got confused with green castle. Yeah that piece should only take a few minutes to get off, but i've done it a few times.
