Gti centre console removal

[Catfish]

Does anyone have diagrams showing how to remove the 9n3 gti centre console - the bit from the 'ashtray' to the gear lever and handbrake and between the front seats, including the gear lever boot? I've done a forum search but nothing relevant shows up.

Any advice/suggestions on how to do this without damage would be appreciated.

I've done this without a diagram... The center consol under the stereo has a rubber mat... Pull this out, and there are 2 torx screws behind this... Once these are undone, they start to uncover more screws to pull out the center consol...

^ That, or - ask user 'Adam'.

He may still have the diagram's to pass onto you if he's feeling nice.

Start at the back - pull the rearmost section straight up.

As Blitzen said, next is the 2 torx screws at the front. Then lift the handbrake really high. The centre section of the console can be lifted around the handbrake/seats etc. The gearboot unclips out the top of this, leaving you to remove the console section.

The cigarette lighter power unclips out the bottom.

Easy!
