I don't think the plastic grilles are seperate from the dash pad (at least there's no part listing for them)

You should probably get new weatherstripping because when you remove it there is a good chance of jacking it up. So with that in mind:
Rip out your weatherstripping. Remove the six screws holding the plate in. Clean out the rust and other crap that gathered underneath the plate. Use good sealant* and replace the metal plate with the six screws you removed in step two. Replace your weatherstripping.

*I wouldn't use silicon due to it's tendency to "shrink" over time.

Your right, "Auto Parts Dismantler" not "Junkyard". Actually the ones I've seen at the local (So Cal) "Pick-A-Parts" have been in pretty good shape. I agree with the weather stripping replacement while you are at it suggestion.
