Alright I have an '03 A4, I am trying to remove the rear deck and I am having a heck of a time. Here is what I have done so far.

I have unclipped the two (2) clips in the front
I have pulled out the speaker grill and and undone the 4 torx screws

The problem is the grill pulls up a little, the issue is it does not slide forward...... WHAT AM I MISSING!!!!!!!!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

edit: wrong car that was for the A3

A4 data to follow

After messing around with it, after popping out the four clips on the front and taking out the four screws you also have to remove the A pillar and the D pillar to remove the rear shelf.

Just thought I would let everyone in case anyone else goes through the same ordeal.
