Default Removing sink/cabinet from 271 fastech?

Hey everyone I'm redoing my cabin, headliner to carpet in my 98 271 fastech, and I'm stuck on removing the cabinet. There are 4 screws holding it to the floor and I can't find any others. Anyone ever done this? Thanks in advance!

If I can figure out how to upload a pic from my phone ill do so

This top piece on my 97 just pops off. It has plastic fastners that are just push on/in. There should be screws behind this plate I believe. Been a while since I had it off for CD/radio install. Pry very carefully with thin blade device.

Are u saying the white facia piece pops off? I know the top trim (upholstered) piece just pops off, but I didn't try the white piece. I pulled on it a bit but didn't want to break it. I felt behind it and it seemed like there was an L bracket with screws on it.

This is what I was referring to, arrows pointing to this piece.

I wanted to remove the cabinet in my 242 and I called Formula because I couldn't figure out how to do it. They said it cannot be removed without pulling the deck or destroying the cabinet. If your in question, just call Formula.

Cabinets are put in before the deck goes on.

I removed port/star cabinets in my 357. The only way to get them out was to tear them apart. Few pieces where salvageable.

I remove the port cabinet in my 95 271 many yrs ago and had to tear the old one out. I also added a refrig and cabinet on the star side. This was the only pic I have been able to find of this project.
