Found all 6 screws and removed them but the console is still attached at the front and I can't find the last connections. Any support here greatly appreciated! Want to remove it so that I can clean out the disintegrated foam and other garbage which has collected underneath there... Happy to post photos if that helps | ||

The console sits in a plastic frame and the screws come down thru a projection or bosses which fit securely into the lower frame. The front screw bosses cannot pull straight up due to interference from the overhanging dash. and have a limited clearance. The trick is to use a screwdriver or nylon trim removal tool to pry adjacent to the front screw bosses as the console is pulled toward the rear.

Based on the pictures and info, I just need to get the console loosened from the console bosses and then I should be good! | ||
