Looking to possible paint my wood grain and I have the wood grain on the console and was wondering how it comes out? Thanks!

You need to pull up and back and it will pop out.

Yes. And I'm sure it's obvious but don't pull up on the lid, put pressure on the cupholders themselves, pull up then it pretty much slides right out.

Thanks man! So grab on both side up the cup holders and pull pretty hard? Just don't wanna break anything haha. Once I get it out can I take off the both lids? Whats the easiest way to get the woodgrain off around the radio?:Handshake:

Thanks,
DW

Yes it will come out fairly easy, or for me it did. I'm not sure about the lids, I've never taken them off. For the radio, get some plastic trim pieces or just put some tape around a screwdriver, push it in between the woodgrain and dash (I did this in the top left of the woodgrain/dash). Once you can get your fingers in there just pull it off carefully so you dont bend any of it. There are clips on all sides, the right and left you can pull ******* and they wont bend, but the top and bottom have clips in the middle and if your not careful you will bend it.
