How do you remove the BMW 3 Series central tunnel?

Model: BMW Serie 3 E92, E90, E91 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Center console tunnel

In order to remove the central tunnel from the BMW 3 Series, you need to start by removing the ashtray which is located immediately behind the armrest: this will allow you to access the underlying screws which will need to be loosened. In this way the central part of the panel can be removed and by accessing all the screws underneath it will be possible to remove the rear part of the tunnel as well. It will therefore be possible to proceed by detaching the front part of the tunnel: this can be removed by lifting the gear lever gaiter and levering from inside its housing. By detaching all the internal clips and the underlying connectors, it will be possible to remove all the panels that make up the console, replacing them with new pieces.
