Hey guys,

Does anyone know how to get in behind the center console (towards the rear) between the seats? I just bought an '03 and the power outlet is loose (to the point I can pull it right out and look at the wires) ... Any suggestions?

I had this same problem in my AP1, I had to take it back to the dealer twice. It was under warranty though.

 

Mines the same, been meaning to fix it for ages but not got around to it yet.

 

After I posted, I realized that I missed the word 'loose' in the forum search ... so after running thru about half a dozen posts ... I combined all the suggestions made previously and fixed it up in about 10mins ... moved the driver's seat all the way forward, removed the 2 coat hooks from the lower panel and snapped the panel off completely ... I then jammed my hand and half my arm (which aren't small) into the center console (this pry'd the lower part of the center console open a bit) ... screwed it back together and so far so good ...

Mine came loose and I did the open the drivers side rear panel and reach in technique and it worked great. All tight now.

 

I'll have to try this, mine is slightly loose.

 

This may have been the lazy way out, but I took a good 2 part epoxy and glued the outlet to the plastic. You can't see any of the epoxy and it has not come loose in over a year. Prior to that I had to have it repaired 3 times.

 

I did that reach in the rear trick and all that did was cut my hand a good half a foot!!! Blood everywhere b/c of some piece of sharp metal back there.
