Installing iPod Adapter and Removing Centre Console

Model: Mazda 6 GH, MK 2 - Years 2008-2012
Part: Accessory kit

The video shows how to detach the plastic covers along the centre console, specifically the one near the handbrake and the one near the gear lever: both are secured with pressure clips.
First, remove the satellite navigation remote control.
Open the glove compartment located to the right of the handbrake and grasp the cover from inside the glove box and from the rear edge just behind the handbrake: pull upwards firmly until it detaches.
Unscrew the knob from the gear lever, remove the ashtray, and detach the cover around the gear lever by pulling upwards; then disconnect the plugs connected to the cigar lighter and the navigation remote control contacts.
The next step is to remove the car radio, connect the wiring of the iPod adapter kit, and run the cables through the centre console to position the Aux output in the glove compartment if necessary.
