Title: Removing centre console(stereo surround bit)
Post by: kevinb on July 02, 2007, 09:26:58 PM
Any clues please?
 
I can get the left hand side out but get stuck with the right hand side.
Ive undone the screw under the dials but can\'t get any further

If your referring to a 3rd gen you need to unscrew the main dash surrounding your instument panel, 2 screws I think either side of the steering wheel, pull it forward a few inches. I usually take off the steering column surround aswell to make it easier. Then there are 2 more screws holding the center consol in.

No I think its symetrical to the one on the LHS. Maybe its missing! Be more forcefull, it\'ll fall apart soon enough.
