I see no fasteners that can be removed. Some joints between sheet metal pieces are wide enough I could pry but nothing appeared like it would start disassembling this thing. I installed it from above about 25 years ago but trying to remove it from above now would likely do injury to body parts that don't move the way they used to. Unless someone has experience that will guide me to another way I see only two options: 1) start hacking with my angle grinder; or 2) an ungodly expensive contractor. Thanks.

Well, it looks like you've already started prying on the retainers, so just continue, because these are repairable.
