That area behind the dash mount bracket is completely hidden by the console.
Couldn't you just take some little sewing scissors and cut a small slit where I marked in red on the following picture and then slide the carpet backward and out from under the dash?

Just an opinion, but I would certainly agree with cutting the carpet as you've suggested. As long as you are careful not to inadvertently slice any wiring that might be hidden under there, I cannot see how that could a problem.

FWIW if you unbolt the dash supports they can be bent outwards aboyt 1/2" or so, enough to get carpet pulled back and installed may have to apply pressure on supports to get bolt started then tighten them downand your good - no cutting of carpet needed
