Default take the faceplate peice off then theres two clips on the top i believe

insert a screw driver and unclip them and it should just slide out.

Default When you said 'faceplate' in your first post did you mean...

the stereo headunit or the ac unit faceplate?

Default There are two tabs on both the top and bottom,

there is a writeup somewhere on here, search for removing HVAC or something similar. Hope this helps some.
