You will need to twist and turn the center console a bit to get it free but it's not too hard. Just make sure you also have a terrycloth towel handy to cover/wrap the edges of the console. Otherwise you could scratch the leather while dragging it across/over the passenger seat. Follow the B&M instructions posted above and you won't have any problems. Don't forget to snap from b4 and after pix and post 'em too
