Help please!! Header Heat Shield

Ok, im trying to chnage my headers right now and im taking off the heat shield so i can acess the bolts.... it seems as though i took off all the bolt but its still not comming off (The top part of the heat shield...the lower part came off) i was wondering is there any super hidden screw or do i need to pull it out a certain way??

thanks

Yea the heatshield bolts can get really gummed up and hidden, but they are there. Like the guy said, two on top, two on bottom, I remember one of the bolts very hard to reach when I was trying to take off the shield. Instead, I just took off the header with the shield all together.

I bent the **** out of mine over the 02 sensor and ripped that **** out with my hands. It wasn't much fun.
