Undo the two screws under there. *Remove the ashtray at the back of the center console, and undo the two screws there. *There may be another screw somewhere in the middle, near where the key goes. If there is, remove it. With the handbrake up, you should be able to start moving the whole center moulding. You'll need to detatch the switches. You sould be able to see what to do next. You'll need a special tool for removing the three-pointed nuts. This is easily made by cutting down a 12/13mm socket. Good luck, and if you get stuck, just ask. -- Grunff
