Volkswagen Jetta Transmission Removal

[bigdaddyjlove]

Hello again,

Hoping someone can help. I have obtained a 1995 VW Jetta for a steal for my fiance to comute in to save a little fuel (her normal ride is a 4x4 Suburban). The reason it was so cheap, is that it needs a clutch. I attempted to remove the transmission yesterday and, all in all, it went well, but at the very end I came to an issue I can't seem to puzzle out. The passenger side drive flange won't clear the flywheel. I cannot find any fastener for the flange (circlip, snap ring, nut, bolt, ect....)

I'm stumped. any suggestions?

Thanks
