Ok. I removed half of the drive shaft, disconnected the clutch slave cylinder, and the reverse light wiring harness thing. I had to remove the transmission mount crossmember temporarily to access the driveshaft bolts. Supported the tranny with the floor jack while doing this.

After removing the bolts, put the tranny mount crossmemeber back on, loosen the plastic clamp that secures the center of the driveshaft, then unbolt the center piece of the two halves of the driveshaft. Be sure to have marked both sides - they're only meant to mate up one way. You then kinda pull down along the center and it slides off.

So, I'm done under the car for this weekend After I get a few hours of sleep, I'll fix and test my driver's side window, fix up the bumper, then continue dismantling the front end and engine stuff.
