[Ham-Mac] Help Removing Silicon Labs USB to UART Bridge Driver

[Dick]

I screwed up by installing a Silicon Labs USB to UART Bridge Driver

http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/pages/usbtouartbridgevcpdrivers.aspx

for OS X to let me talk to the Kenwood TS-590S software.  It did not work and 
the Silicon Labs installer does not have an uninstaller.  

I could use some help on how to uninstall or delete the SL USB driver.   When 
the installer did its thing it said it put two items under /dev.

I do not have /dev folder and would like to know how to find and remove
the installed items.
