Thought so, I guess its welded in place. Just wanted to check around before I start drilling and prying and ruin the thing.

The patch panel is about 10 inches tall, so Illl cut a good bit of the cab out there so I can reach up and deal with that metal cage you described. Im betting it just rusted and fell apart. Thanks for that info!
