My radio is stuck...

So I'm trying to take out the factory Mach 460 head unit in my 2000 GT. I got the tool and removed the cd player no problem. When trying to take out the head unit, I pushed the tool too far into the holes on the left side and i heard a little crack noise. Now I can't feel the spring with the tool, and it easily slides in almost all the way (too far) So now I'm stuck. I was thinking of trying to get in there through the cd player opening with a dremel tool to cut off the white rail thing, I don't know.
My ultimate goal is to remove the center console.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Thanks for the help guys, yea I know I'm not supposed to push it in that far but I was trying to get it inside the clip and gave it a whack to go in and it went too far. I have a feeling I bent the clip prongs or something. I'll try taking the dash bezel off, but are you talking about the 2 Torx-20 screws right above the cd player?

98E9GT, I'm holding on to the mach headunit, sorry.
