I've done this a couple times recently, always a bitch. Things I tend to miss are the three screws in the defrost vents (PITA to get at), the nuts (or screws can't remember) on the tranny tunnel, and the ones hidden behind the center console. Try to disconnect all the heater stuff to, which sucks but needs to be done. Good luck.

Don't for get the stupid ones on the underside of the dash behind the center heater vents to each side. Those are a pain in the *** to get, because you can't get a normal screwdriver or socket wrench up there.
