Yeah I got seriously peed off with that clip. Had to walk away and leave it for 15mins before I kicked the dash in haha. It's really sharp too! Once I got it out I then learnt you can get to it by removing the glovebox.
I managed to remove the lower centre without fully removing the rear section, I just loosened that cable and lifted the big part up and wedged it between both seats. Somehow worked.
I've not got intravee
.
Really want the corner of the hockey stick lit up

Note to self... USE A PLASTIC PRYING TOOL :headbang:
Quick sand down and job done though
Someone else had the dash out before hand too and didn't use a plastic tool :headbang:
Vent surround needs a touch up too
This is from fitting the last 2 bucket seats I picked up a few weeks ago biggest :headbang: of all!!
On another note the drivers side came out OK!

Hahaha!!! I did exactly the same!! I used a microfibre to stop it being so sharp!!
I've got to remove the rear section anyways to get the TV tuner plugged in so in for the long hall
Hmm, I've only heard that being done when you swap the pre facelift lights to the facelift ones and code it that way. Neil with the lovely orange Z on here has this done
Beetlegav said:Centre console was a right sod to get out! Think it's harder if you have the cd changer and nav unit in the cubby.
The metal part is held on with a ridiculous amount of bolts too once you get it out! More than what holds the car together I think :lol:
I want audible locking on mine! Also want my front amber drls coding on. Don't know how too. Or have anyone I know up here
Cd changer and nav have no effect on removing trim. Only BT cradle makes it slightly harder.

I've had the BT cradle out before which was a bit of a pig!
Looking outward to tomorrow lunch time to take it all out!
Not so looking forward to driving without the trims in place! Will disassemble everything at work, wrap it that evening (if I have time) then replace everything the next day!
Started with the dash this evening whilst my wife wa on the phone to her mum... AGES!!
The we've was different direction than my steering wheel so I had to use 2 runs if it. Was worried about a really obvious line but think it's come out pretty good...
Bottom under radio unit... Squint and you can see it!
Top, not a brilliant picture... Light is rubbish! Few bubbles to iron out here
Light control unit (same direction as dash!)
Starting the surrounds on the temperature control unit (same direction as rear of dash)

I used a card wrapped in a sock! (Couldn't find any microfibres :headbang: ) did the job nicely though!
The other parts finished off...
Heated the lot up once again and bubbles pushed out a treat. I got a wrap that had small grooves on the back to release air and it worked a real charm once heated
still got lots left for the centre console too just gotta gain enough motivation to pull the lot out now!!
