Default Help removing blower motor

I am in the process of replacing the wiper motor and I am stuck on the step of removing the blower motor. I have the 6 8mm bolts removed; however, I can't get the motor to budge yet alone remove. Is there anything else holding this down that I am not getting? TIA

I am pretty sure that there may be two more screws. Once the screws are removed the blower motor lifts right out. I have never had one stuck.

On my 89 951 there are 6 screws holding it in place. The first time you remove it, it is difficult because of the gasket between the blower and the body. I may have gently used a screwdriver or something to get it started. Once you get one side up, it comes right off. It is somewhat heavy/awkward to remove. I just did this a couple of weeks ago to replace my AC expansion valve.

yea just get a wide flat device and pry gently. my implement of choice is an old butter knife. it's nice and thin enough to get in there without scoring the plastic edges like a screwdriver.
