Question Wow : removing the air bag is NOT easy

So, I'm sitting here in car probing deeply into the 2 holes (5&7 o'clock) to release the springs that hold the air bag in place. R side (passenger side) went relatively easy but WOW the L side is not. I wonder if I have to angle the screwdriver outwards for this side or something different? All's I know is that 45" if probing has not released the other side... frustrating

Anyone have words of guidance? I hate to push the R side back into place & drive to way-over-priced dealer with my head hung in shame (plus my dealer is always booked out 2 wks : by time they'd get to me we'll have snow on the ground)

Any help is appreciated!
