"A" pillar question

I tried this in paint and body with no luck so I'll try it here.
I'm in the process of cutting out my front floor,front cab support,and kick panel.My A pillar is still in good shape but I can't get the panels sandwiched in behind the pillar loose.The pillar has that backing piece on it that I thought was just spot welded together but evidently something else is holding it.I don't really wanna replace the pillar just for this.Any advice?
Here's a picture to make it alittle more clear...

All three layers are spotwelded together and they can be difficult to separate. If you can locate the spots you can drill them out.
