Removing centre console fascia

[Rocket]

Hi All,

Have a rattle behind my centre console fascia (cant seem to stop it by pressing on anything from the front so i think its a bit deeper near the radio or cup holder or top air vents) so i wonder has anyone here removed or know how to removed the front plastic bits of the centre console to i can get to whats behind? I figure some of you who have changed parts/stereos would know this. Any pics of where clips etc might be would be great too :)

Take it back to the dealer and get them to fix it!

Bump... :)

the card holder is easy to pull out if you just put a credit card or similar in, hold it on an angle and give it a tug...to remove the stereo needs a set of removal tools that slide into the 4 slots in the corners

Thanks kevvie, what about the main large panel that surrounds everything? how does that come off?

when i was looking around for a spot for some extra gauges and i found 2 screws undewr where the aircon switches are. Have a look there.
