Need to remove centre console
#1
So my radio fell in behind my centre console today and has been an absolute nightmare to remove. I've tried removing the wires and pulling it out sideways, but I can't reach the wiring for the radio. It's pretty much left me with either removing the air vents in order to remove the wiring, or removing the fascia for the console to bring the radio out.

Anyone know which way would be best to approach this?

Bottom panel will lever off with screwdriver.

Unplug lower button, unscrew clock and other screws in this area.

Reach to where radio was either side a 10mm but. Undo then pull facia off.

I think that's it.

Take the fasia out, then you can undo the 4 screws holding the heater controls in, If you was to remove the air vents there is a chance of snapping the clips when you pull it out. So id move the controls and get from it from under it.

Thanks guys. The bottom of the radio is probably around the heater controls if that makes any difference?

You will have more room to fit your hand in when the fascia is removed Smile

Absolutely no luck, radio is jammed in now and I can't reach the 10mm socket. Nightmare

Take the clocks out, you will be able to reach in from the side to lift it and push it back out.
