Hello,

I do not remember per se, but I have picture, that shows the panels you need to remove to get there.

You will need to remove the radio and AC modules too I think.

Hope that it helps.

That is pretty easy actually. It is just clips holding it once you remove the silver trim around the shift knob.
Here is a video that helped me.

Hahah yeah , but the information is about right. Basically, you just have to remove the silver trim part, with a trim removal tool.

Once that is out, you just have to do the same thing for the whole trim, it is held by clips. Be mindful of the seat heater cable.

Haha, I just went back and saw your comments.

I do not have a guide per se, but once you remove the cupholder, the is a little screw close to the second cupholder that holds the armrest.
Inside the armrest, under the rubber mat, there are two screws if I remember properly. There are clips that hold those long trim pieces toward the accelerator peddle and on the passenger side too.
it all comes out as one piece. Hope that helps.

Yeah, you should definitely create a new thread for that. That should be something you can buy and replace instead of gluing it.
