Does anyone know how to remove the factory radio from a 1998 BMW 528i?

I removed the 2 trim peaces flanked on both sides, 3 philips, but the radio is still secured. I think that there is a removeable face plate around the tape player, but before I start pulling to hard I wanted to be sure.

usually Bimmers have two small hex-type screws; one on each side under a small plastic trim piece. It could be different on this car; but just a thought.

Life moves pretty fast; if you don't stop and look around once in a while; you could miss it.

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.
