If you need to carry out repairs or modifications to the stereo and/or the centre console, this guide will assist you in the disassembly process. Start with the compartment next to the handbrake, which is the cup holder.

Pull it out firmly as shown in the video. Next, unscrew the gear knob.

Disconnect the last part of the console around the gear lever, also removing the electrical connector and the lamp holder at the back. Unscrew the two front screws at the bottom of the console.

Open and detach the glove compartment by operating the side lever and then the walls as illustrated in the video. Once the drawer is removed, unscrew the third side screw.

At this point, you can also remove the centre console along with the stereo to install any modules for use with an iPhone or other devices.
