Hey guys, ive tried searching the forums but I haven't found an answer to my problem. I'm getting ready to install new carpet in my '91 Camaro and have all the interior removed other than the center console. I have already removed the shifter plate that's connected to the ash tray...but I'm unable to remove the bigger plastic piece (what the glove box is attached to). I can't get it over the ebrake to save my life!!! Heres a pic of the piece I'm talking abt :

Please give me any tips! I don't want to break it! Thanks

 

should be bolts in the bottom of the center console/glove box and i believe by the shifter and two up by the heater/ac control then it should come out amd slide rite over the e brake handle

 

i recently took mine out, i'm pretty sure you need to take out the radio bezel

 

You need to remove your Head unit and un bolt the AC controls.

The whole center console is are 2 pices.
1 is the plastic, which has the glove box, ash tray and shifter area.
2 is the carpeted area which has some bolts that need un fastening.
And VWALA!!

When removing your carpet it will be difficult to get the piece between the 2 seats up by where the head unit and AC part is, took me a few tries (should be taped together or something)
I kinda just yanked it out. But be carefull.
It will be fun putting that area back in...

Good Luck!!

 

You have to man handle the Ebrake to an almost completely straight up/down position. Also, the center console lide must be opened straight up as well (the lid spring gets caught on the console bottom if not opened.

 

Thanks for the quick replies!!

 

I will be taking out my console as well, but I have a bird. Are the steps to taking it out similar? I ask because the bird has a console, and the radio pod is separate.
