Does anyone know how to remove the center console surrounding the gear shifter? I believe I can access all screws except one that is blocked by the stupid coin/cell phone holder thing (see pic). How to I remove this coin holder! I already got the screw out to the left of it but I can't seem to access whatever is holding it in on the right....



Here is the coin holder open, but i don't see any screws at all to access anymore points....



I basically spilled soda all on the center area and now it has gunked up the spring that releases the shift lock when the button is pressed in. I need to access this spring release shown here, but to really clean it I need to remove all the surrounding console area!

the coin holder should be held in place by one screw on the left hand side, back up behind the trim pieces, (look down and under the radio piece). should be pretty easy to spot. just use a phillips or a socketwrench to remove the bolt then the coin holder slides STRAIGHT out. dont pull to the left cause you might break the clip. good luck, hope this helps!
