2009 RL center console

Hi everybody,

new owner of a sweet 09 rl i found with only 80k. im looking to install some av stuff which i already have figured out (for now).
but my BIGGEST obstacle will be running wire from the trunk to the front of the car without going thru trim pieces next to the doors (forgive me if im not using the right term).

ive gotten the simple pieces off like the piece that goes over the shifer and a plastic piece that sits between the arm rest and cup holder but ive removed and all fasteners and plain sight and cant seem to figure out how to remove the center console. not much luck either on google. anyone out there that can help?

if you took apart the trim it should expose bolts that hold the center console together...and the armrest cubby has a bolt that goes to the floor.

thank you for your help but im still stuck. theres the cup holder which i have a feeling is covering more bolts/fasteners but i cant get it out, it has 2 tabs which pop easliy on the back but i cant get it out and im a little intimidated to brute force it since it feels like some of the plastic might snap. ill attach some pics but please let me know if theres any info i could provide to make this easier.

in order to remove the center console, you will need to remove the two side carpet panel, cup holder. I did a 09+ center console upgrade in my KB1 lol.
