Another dash removal question, BUT not center trim this time

I bought a '07 Screw about a month ago and am trying to figure out the best places to hide electronics. I've looked at a lot of posts but have not found out how to remove these 2 panels. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

I'm not 100% sure about this but the top right one is the air bag and can't be removed. I may be wrong though.

I think the airbag is actually above that panel. I've heard others say there's a large space behind the one I'm asking about, but don't know how to get it off. Looking at pics of one guy's dash swap, it looks like it's just clipped in and can be pulled off, but I don't want to try that and break something without knowing for sure.

If you have the console open up the center trim and look down... BIG OPEN space. You can fit a small amp in there. I have my XM, Sirius, Ipod, 3Sixty.2, and remote start harness down there. With tons left over.

there are actually 4 screws as well. 2 on the under side that you can take out with the glove box open, the other 2 are on the back side behind the dash, 1 on each side of the panel. remove those 4 screws and the panel pops off. Yes there is a decent amount of space there, i've got an ipod adapter, and strobe power supply there.

take out the center stack and reach behind it with a screwdriver. for the right side pop off the end panel and use the screwdriver to get to that screw. sorry, hard to explain, but those screws are on the outer edge of the panel at about dead center from top to bottom.
