Help - Taking Apart Center Console
Let me start at describing what I plan on doing. I just picked up my Tein FLEX with EDFC, and want to install the EDFC unit in the lower section of the Center Counsel, where the faux ashtray resides. From looking at diagrams I have been able to find, it looks like there are four screws holding the whole compartment in place.
I have been trying to figure out how to get to these screws, as they are covered by other plastic pieces. I tried applying moderate force to 'snap' the pieces off, but with no success. It's quite possible I need to strong-arm it, but I want to see if anyone else has already performed this task, as I'd prefer to not break anyting.
So If you have performed this taks, can you please share some advice.
Thanks in advance!

I would highly suggest looking at this Comptech short shifter installation document for how to get access to the area.

First rule: BE GENTLE.
Second rule: Don't force things to bend too sharply, or you'll be in the market for new trim pieces ($).
I installed my short shifter without problems (read above rules), but others have damaged the plastic trim pieces following the same instructions.

first, pull out center console (top pocket under ac/radio buttons). do this by pressing out on the inside walls and pulling out. this will expose the screws. you also need to pull out the lower center trim (around shifter) in order to take out the ashtray bit. when i say pull out, i mean stick your fingers in there and pull - they are held in by tension clips.
