Use a long narrow screwdriver to release the tab on the connector.

there is about 3 -4 plugs for that. im pretty sure that you can get it out w/o pullin your dash. you just want the control unit out right? why are you taking it out are you replacing it or are you pulling everything out? there are 4 plug and the looms for the plugs range from 6 inchs to 2 ft you might want to see if you can reach under the dash at all

I wish I could answer that question but I honestly don't remember. I don't know if when I did mine that I removed the glovebox or what. I do know that it was a major PITA. You might want to use trochoids link to the FSM and see if they can shed light on it for you.
