ingstprt,

WHOA!

Unless your car is for the European market, you:

1. Remove the two fasteners under the access panel.
2. Remove the handbrake cover by pressing down slightly and sliding it to the left. Then slide the boot over the handle to remove completely.
3, Disconnect the two harness connectors found underneath.
4. Pull the sides of the console away at their lower front edges ( where they overlap the center stack section) to release the clips.
5. Move the gear selector to the middle position and lift the console up and out of the car.

If for the European market, you may have two fasteners holding the front in. You can remove the coin holder by pulling it up in back and look to see. Most likely though the console has a tab that slides into a slot in the front w/o additional fasteners.

You DO NOT have to remove the wood trim to remove the console.

Let me know if you need further info.
