How to remove centre console/stereo surround?

My short shifter guide with show you what you need to do

Don't use a screwdriver to lever ANYTHING! It'll mark the trim like its butter. The gear surround pulls up by pulling the front edge up with you fingers from the inside.

Thanks for that Christian. Yeh I know what you mean about the scratches, I was thinking of paintign the colured plastic body coloured then decided not too as its a course surface and would take a lot of prep work. As its a 'proper' car and not a drift dawwwwg I decided I wanted it done properly if done at all, and it would cost a small fortune. :wack:

i removed many marks using autosol on the plastic...sounds mad but if used gently it hides the ligher scrathes very well and dosnt grind out the textured surface. youll need to wash it after though as the white cream gets into the texture. failing that flocking is cheap nowadays

also on a completely random note brasso is ace for tidying up ipods as it less abrasive again

Flatten it off with W&D and then respray ?

Would be a big job. There is quite a lot of centre console...
