No, you mean the middle console, right? Seats shouldn't have to come out to remove any of the interior pieces, IIRC.
What have you done to your P5 today?

trying to figure out why after the mother ****** was running, it decided it didn't wanna turn on anymore.. making for a big pita for selling! god dammit.
^^^
have fun... i've took mine out on a few occasions... that sucker never goes back in the same way it came out... i say if you don't have to take it out... "don't"
i just had it competely down to just the actual gear selector box ( i dont know the correct name) everything went back together but couldnt figure out how to pull that selector apart.
i saw 3 sews on the edges that seemed to hold down the top like it was a cover.. loosened them but they didnt back out... maybe a nut on the bottom side? ill have to get a better attempt at it with more day light. luckly all went back together without an issue.
alright so in the green rectangle is what i got it down to basically. the 3 screws i meantioned earlier are in the places of the red rectagle. those are the screws that i tried to back out but wouldnt come. im not sure if there i a nut on the bottom side of those or not. the red rectangles are the 4 bolts that hold that to the car. assuming if i loose those i can maybe get a look at the underside of it all there and maybe get a better idea of whats the issue.
has anyone taken this off and if so have any suggestions?
thanks.
thanks, thats what i was hoping to hear. ill try this tomorrow.
It's actually pretty easy, just 6 screws. two in back, two in middle, two up front on either side, don't brake the plastic nut type of thing around the screws when taking the cap off for the fronts, otherwise it won't look very nice when it's done.
And if it's an auto w/ shiftragic you'll have to put the car in neutral or drive to get it out.

That sucks exactly what happened to mine...shattered driver side window and ripped entire center console out, f'ed up the heating controls and everything. Took nav unit, ipod, cds, tool box and cleaning supplies from trunk as well as alpine sub...freakin' bastards. my repairs came to about $800 for window and center console. ebay has reverse harness for radio clip if they messed that up...good luck (friday)

Spelling is correct. Try home depot.

I really need to clean mine...it has 4 rims, 4 tires, a pile of clothes, work stuff, and dog toys in it...there are two tires in the front seat and I have stuff in the insides of them...I just haven't had the will to do it...school has been killing me...
completely pulling it apart tomorrow ill keep you updated.
Wow, wish I could get that out of my P5...
Ordered a new tire for my BMW and a lot of 10 oil filters.
Oh wait, wrong forum, lol...
Drove the P5 to work, one of the rear brakes sticks or something going backwards, is this a common thing? Started doing it after I replace the rear wheel bearings, maybe I didn't get something back together correctly...
Only happens when rolling backwards or in reverse, horrible sound.
