Rear console removal?!

Do I need to remove the whole rear console to get to part no. 9?!

I scratched it carrying a TV stand! I want to tidy it up or just replace it.

Can't find a DIY that goes that far, hoping it's not a full pain in the arse...

Should just pop out, it'll be held in by a million clips and be very very tight.

Cheers bud, will give it a try! In the past I've been known to go in a little heavy handed so don't want to pull something out that is fixed!!

No probs fella.
Just do a little bit at a time and work your way round as your prize it up.
Shouldn't be too difficult
