i need to get the console off where the cd player and all the a/c and heat ***** are i cant figure it out please help guys thanks and if anyone know i would like to get the silver thing around the base of the shifter off

 

There are two screws, one under each of the side ***** for the temp controls. The ***** just pull straight out.

With the ***** off and screws out, I use a sharp knife and insert it between the bottom of the silver piece and the black plastic behjind it. Pull straight out and work out towards the top. I would not suggest starting from the top as the dash area is easily marred.

This may help:

thank you

 

do not use a knife anywheres. lol that's flirting with death. lol. just pull out from the center air outlets it'll all just pop out.

 

I like the knife method. I went from the top once and it marked up the black dash. Not much of a mark at all, and I fixed it, but I have never had troubles with going in from the bottom.

 

couldnt have said it better myself just use your fingers its no big deal 2 ***** 2 screws then pull straight out good luck
