DIY-DVD player in armrest
all right there has been many kinda write ups but i feel they did not really go into detail thus showing you how to do it so here is my attempt
FOR THE DVD PLAYER, I USED THE MYRON DAVIS AD212 3/4 DIN IT FITS PERFECTLY
1. Remove arm rest,
a.pull clip on drivers side off, it is on the little metal part of the hinge
you have to dig for it
b. slide armrest to the right, (drivers side) and pull towards you
passenger side should pop out
c. do the same, slide to left and pull
NOW we have the armrest out
2. first unzip leather and pull it off (easy)
3. next pull out the cupholders:
this is done by using a butter knife and compressing the
tabs located on the top of the cup holders ie. the 2 red
circles

4. remove front trim piece:
4 tabs 2 on top 2 on bottom

5. Now remove black sleeve:
there are r tabs that secure it in place and that need to be
pulled down at the same time, i used 4 butter knives to pry
the tabs down and slowly pulled out the black sleeve this is
what your dvd player will sit in

6. Open the sleeve by pressing the 3 tabs on each side (simple)

7. next mark where your dvd player will sit and use to self tapping screws into the sides of the plastic to prevent your dvdplayer from sliding back, make sure its forward enough that its flush with the trim ring cause that's what holds it in place
