Wasso Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Presuming you've taken all necessary bolts out retaining the central and mid console sections. If so, pop your fingers behind the triple gauge cluster and give it a firm yank. Not aggressive but firm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KUGT4 Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 cheers - yep, step 11 - doesn't work for me - just won't budge... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudman Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Just wondering if previous owner has glued it in - on mine the catch at the top was worn so can be a bit rattly - solved with strategically placed hidden blu tack ! Hopefully sorted when the dipped replacement gets fitted btw will have a centre console (no cubby door) and Gear surround up for grabs next month or so - watch the for sale board!

Mondo 300 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Are you on about the console that houses the three gauges? Or the transmission tunnel console? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KUGT4 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Share Posted November 2, 2014 is this a; - push down and pull towards yourself together? - push down and then pull towards yourself? - pull towards yourself only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Pull towards you only. It probably has never been removed and therefore a night tight. Pull it, what's the worst that can happen, apart from your entire dash coming away lol. If you follow the lines of the central dash you'll feel that edge at the top. Get your fingers placed on that edge/lip and pull towards you, head height so to speak. But take into account there's a wire that connects the triple gauges to the dash, so don't pull more thank 10".
