This sucks. AC delete stalling

I have ALL of the ac components ripped out except for the vaporator in the smugglers box. I disconnected the hoses, siring and the 10mm nut attached to the hold down strap. The silly thing wont come out. So tell me, where is the bolt that I am missing and how do i get it out????

It comes out in pieces.
The top cover is held on with metal clips around the edge. Slide them to remove. Remove the clips, then remove the top cover, lift out the evaporator coil. The lower piece of the box can then be unfastened from the car body.

The bi-metallic switch at the base of the evaporator is keeping you from getting the whole mess out. It's located at the base of the passanger side footwell (access from inside the passanger compartment) take out the six screws the arrows point to in the picture.

To clarify John's picture, this is directly behind the passenger floor board.

Isn't there also a connection behind the passenger floor board that must be disconnected before you can remove the evaporator?
