Default Outer Molding Around Radio,Climate Controls and Clock

From an earlier post, it seems that I need to remove this outer molding before I can get the clock out of the dash. There are 2 screws on the bottom that I did remove, but the molding still acted like it didn't want to come out. It was getting hung up on the top side. Is there some kind of trick to removing this molding?

If this post is in reference to a 2000 and up Accord clock ... then ... NO ... you do not have to remove the bezel to get the clock out. All you need is a 1 1/2" putty knife and a shop rag. Just put the rag on the knife and slide it gently under the clock. Pry up and kinda pull it towards yourself and it will pop out. You then just disconnect the 2 connectors on the back ... flip it over ... unscrew the bulb ... screw new one in ... hook connectors back up ... pop back into dash ... reset your clock. WALAH!
