Instructions for Removing Central Console

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Dashboard

Removing the controls on the central console is a fairly simple operation that does not require special tools or skills. Start by detaching the gear lever gaiter by pulling it along the edges; then unscrew the two screws under the gaiter, those on the sides, and those under the ashtray. At this point, detach the central console covering by pulling it forward: first, remove the covering of the central tunnel by detaching the switch panel under the handbrake (remove the other screws at the rear). Now remove the switch panel with the window controls.

In this video, learn how to remove the grille located on the front bumper of a Ford Ranger. Prepare to take off the plastic grille: use a socket spanner to unscrew the fasteners securing the grille (located on the inside of the bumper). With a plastic lever, pry between the grille and the bumper until it disengages from its housing. Once the grille is free, remove it from the bumper and fit a new one.
