Default Removal of Lock Block
Any trick to removing the lock block on a SG. I've removed the two screws but it does not want to pull out. Does the radio need to be removed forst?

Yes I pulled off the switch and spring. Now I need to take off the block that goes into the frame.

I think there is a big nut on the top and then the rest pulls off.
