Centre console trim removal - help please

[Jamie2.5]

Morning all

I have wrapped my Alu trim dash and door handles in the 3M carbon fibre but still need to do the centre console trim. All other videos show how to remove the full centre console itself and not just the aluminium - does any body know if this can be done?

Thanks

Yes, can be done but you still need to get the full console out and then unscrew the trim. Have fun!

The first time is a PITA... bit like your first shag, got some idea but no experience

IMO the hardest part is removing the plastic door in between the seats... just remove the two tiny screws & be brave, it will come out

I managed it without removing the door, I could not get that b@stard out for love nor money!! The screws beneath the door under that little plastic cover where a sod to get out with the door in place.

Excuse me? I think you both need to get the sand out of your fannies, it's not some kind of secret club FFS :roll:

You're an idiot. Read the bottom line.

Well I've seen the invite link being directly posted on this forum in the last week by another member, so just naming the website seems really not a big deal, but by all means get on your high horse. :roll: everyone knows about this place.

ok, so just because some other dufus here posted a link you think it exonerates you from adding to the risk of the workaround site being taken down?
great logic. keep it up fella.

If it really bothers you sharing the knowledge with others why not just download the contents of the site and have it offline, it's not hard dufus. No need for you to worry then :roll:

That's not the fkg point though is it!
The point is that there are many who use and rely on that site to do jobs on their cars and the fact is that BMW ordered it taken down. So the originators made a workaround site and specifically requested registrees to keep it quiet as per the screenshot.
But that doesn't matter to selfish individuals like you of course does it? You'll download the site in order to have the offline info at your own disposal and sod everyone else if the site gets taken down because of idiots like you who decided to post info about it on forums and put it at risk of being taken down again!

I think you're missing the point, but never mind, sounds like we won't agree on this. I (and most other people I imagine) already have TIS, it's freely available so an offline copy is always available in any case. I think the selfishness here is not pointing members to a resource if they ask, the website owners can of course refuse new sign ups so I'm not sure why you are getting your knickers in such a twist.
