Disconnect the power connector with a screwdriver. Turn on the ignition and position the gear shift lever in the center position.

Next, remove the cover of the gear shift knob and then the entire center panel. Remove all the connectors and the retaining pins from the tunnel and pull it out. Now, sand the plastic next to the cigarette lighter socket and attach the AUX piece with a suitable two-part adhesive.
