As above can the ashtray be removed without taking all of the centre console out.

If so how, i've lost the on/off slider of my CG lock and i think/hope it's fell down there.

thanks

I THINK, you can just yank it out. Better get some more technical advice before you do though! My old '02 one is still on my desk and i never had to unscrew anything to remove it.

On my MY02 it simply lifted out. I don't even remember having to squeeze any tangs/clips etc.

I'll let these butch boys have a look at it at the lakes - it's a PITA to be honest and I wish I could remove it (without damaging it)

Double check that, if you don't want it in there. When I got mine I spent a week trying to get it out and then decided it must be rivited in place.

After a while of being puzzled he just applied more force then I was prepared to risk and it came out. Yours could be the same?
Hmmm.......... I have the same problem. Didn't want to force too hard for fear of breaking something. There is definitely something that looks like a rivet though so I presumed it was fixed for good. Will try with bit more force.............
