I am no longer an expert on removal of the front TV - too much time has passed since the 2010 project. I do recall it being quite the pain. Straps were used in the rear of the TV. You have to reach around & under TV to get to them. I seem to recall having to use a small ratchet to somehow blindly loosen some hex-head screws.
After, I replaced TV with a flat screen, mounted the TV base to a larger plywood panel & sandwiched the TV frame with the panel you have already removed.
Sorry I couldn't be more specific. It is a difficult project, but rewarding if you replace the old TV.
