Center Console

Was wondering how to pull the center console off in a 2G. Can't find it on VFAQ and I know someone has done it...Just trying to get to the wiring so i can put my TT Mount in there...

The AC and vents?

Basically.. take a flat head screwdriver.. put a cloth on the end so you dont scratch the console.. put it in the crack.. slowly pry it off the latches.. pull out by the vents.. perty easy.

I think he's talking about the actual center console. First, remove the bezel around the head unit by prying it out carefully, held in by 2 clips at the top. Then, remove the screws under where you just took off the bezel (you'll be able to tell which ones hold the console on). Then, take out the ashtray so u can get leverage to pull the whole cup holder/ashtray piece out. u will see screws under there, take them out. Also take out the ashtray light while you're in there by turning it till it pops out. Then, go up and take out the drivers side kick panel (theres a screw back by the pedals and a clip up closer to the seat, its kinda hard to manuever out of there once its loose but you'll get it). Then you can get to the cigarette lighter which you need to remove. Unscrew the little ring thats downt by where the wires for it connect and also unplug the middle wire. Pull out the cigarette lighter. Then, slide both seats all the way forward to reach the screws that are at the ver back of the center console. And finally go unscrew the shift knob and loosen up the boot thats probly gonna be stuck to the shifter itself. Pull the center console and you're done. Damn thats way too long . I hope that's what you wanted cause that took forever.

Yeah, but im guessing i dont have to do that all, I just want to get it up enough to run wires for my TT.

Well you could just run wires for the TT by taking off the drivers side kick panel. Thats how I run all my wires. Damn you for making me write all that .
