Default '87 Brake Booster Removal?

How do you remove the brake booster from an '87 ('86-'89) Accord? I have removed the yoke and still can't seem to get enough clearance on the through bolt to get it out from the firewall and the booster out of the engine bay. Is the only way to get this out of there to dismantle half of the engine?

Honda doesn't tell you how to do it in the manual. So I would assume they want you to do this with the booster still in the car.

That makes no sense in how I am reading it. I am asking how to remove the booster, and you are saying to remove it while it is still in the car?

Remove the wiper arm motor and that will get you enough room to finess the booster out. Just in case anyone else plans to do this any time soon.
