Dash and air bag removal help

I have all the stereo parts, speakers, air control unit, air ducts, and steering wheel off of my 99 996. While I have removed 4 screws on the bottom so te dash is loose at the bottom, 2 screws at the stereo housing and one by the center of the windshield, the dash is still on the car rock solid at the top. Where are all the screws and other clips or fasteners located?

And, how do I remove the passenger side air bag?

I hope this helps for the dash (it's from a 996 TT - it should be close)...

Under the dash you can remove two large screws I think they are 10 or 12mm but it needs to be done from under the dash....

The dash has lots of screws, under the speaker grills, under the air ducts, it's not a quick 5-minute job....

Good Luck but it's not going to be a one line answer here....
