what brand did you get? i had a piece that was the worst fitment imaginable.. i ended up cutting it in half and trying to piece it together, and it still didnt fit if you have the leather center console cover, you need to remove it down to the bare carpet or bare metal and then somehow get it over the tunnel without cracking the cf panel..

There's not much to it. Just unscrew the shift knob and put some plastic wrap and tape over the handbrake handle to protect it. The console snaps right out, just lift up on it. When you get it loose, unplug the wiring connectors underneath the console.

AP1 is the same way. start from your arm rest, lift up one corner and you will here a pop/snap and work your way around and the arm rest will just come up. It will pop right off.

that's the Aerosync CF panel... same piece i bought, except mine fit like $hit. GL trying to get that piece on.. hopefully my piece was just a manufacturer error.. i started off by trying to snap it on, no luck. Then i went ahead and trimmed a bit off of the sides that are supposed to wrap around the top of the center console (the sides were way too long and there was no way it could wrap around that much). Ended up just cutting the entire piece in half right through the middle and trying to piece it together from the side (using tape and plugs from the console cover to keep it pieced together). No luck with that either..
