getting the deck out of my '98 honda accord

i cannot seem to get into the area surrounding the deck in my car. Originally, i had paid some installers to install the stuff for me but now i want to put an aux cable into the back of my deck and im having a tough time getting back there to put it in.

so far i can get the main panel surrounding the deck to come out about an inch at the bottom, but it cant move at the top. There seems to be a screw (or clip) up by the clock that is holding it in place. Does anyone know how to get the panel off? I would rather not have to take it back to the installers just to get a little cable plugged in...

i googled around a bit, but the best i could come up with was a guide that helped with 94-98 models, but the car they did it on was clearly not the same as mine. The middle panel in the one they showed came all the way down to around the shifter, mine ends just below the bottom of the deck

Look for screws that you may not be able to see, all panels should just easy pop off with the screws out. Some are holding others in place. Look harder. Sometimes you have to take the whole dash off, even up by the window (cavi).

There is a screw behind the clock, take a small flat head screw driver or some type of pry tool and you should be able to pry the clock out, behind it will be a screw.
