Unhappy HELP: Clock fell into dash, how to fix? 98 Ltd

I was adjusting the clock on my 1998 4Runner Limited for daylight savings time and the hour button was stuck (wouldn't go in), so I pushed harder. Well, wouldn't you know it I pushed that button so hard that the whole clock module fell back into the dash.

Now, I have a hole in my dash and the clock module is in the hole. I can see it, I can reach it, but I can't pull it back into place, it seems like I have to get behind there somehow.

Is there a way to remove just a small part of the dash console and put the clock back in place? Or is this a big procedure that involves removing the whole dash? Any step by step instructions or links are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
