GU centre console removal

[threedogs]

Any tricks to removing the centre console, I need to remove
that switch panel and also fit my extension lead for my UHF mike.
Had a search and there's nothing on it.

Easy mate. Undo screws in bottom circles, and slowly pull it away by grabbing from top orange circle.

Console not dash please
The arm rest one

Two screws in the front sides and one under the ash tray. You will need to remove the lever knobs too.

Yaeh, you can just see one of the screws in the pic from Hodge... very bottom of frame just in from RHS

Once the console is out you can access the two screws for the switch panel. Unless your talking about the panel opposite the hand brake. Then there is two screws at the front of the console box ( can be seen when the centre console is out) and the is two at the lower rear sides on the box. Near the front seat runners (rear section) Thats to remove the entire console box to access the said panel.

Getting closer all I want to remove is the armrest console The shifter can stay where it is , I dont want to remove that.
just the arm rest part if thats clearer, unless the lot needs to be removed which doesnt make much sense atm

IIRC You need to take out the "shifter" bit to get to the front screws of the Armrest bit.... been aaaages since I did one tho

That aint going to happen Ill have to think of another way to do what I want,
I thought it was seperate to the shifter part.?

It is... but... it takes like 30 seconds to get the shifter bit out of the way... it is only 3 screws

Give me a sec to check the manual
