how to replace aluminum trim pieces on sides of console?
I just got 2 new pieces of the aluminum trim that run along each side of the center console. I just want to do it the right way without bending the old ones or messing up the new ones. Has anyone done this before? Anything I should look out for? Thanks in advance.

(How much did the two trim pieces cost you and where did you get them?)
As for installing, go get a knife, rap a thin cloth around it, and then you can slip the knife in between the trim pieces and the area around the A/C buttons and slowly lift. If I'm not mistaken, there are three or four strong clips holding them in.
