Anyone know how to take out the PCM module?

[phrankandbeanz]

I am trying to swap my OEM brushed aluminum for the OEM carbon fiber trim. All the parts on the door and the dash strips were done rather easily however, I am now stuck on the center console part.

It took the shifter trim apart, got the center console trim loose but there 2 clips from the center console trim that is underneath the PCm module.

It seems like the PCM/Nav unit might need to be removed.

Anyone have any idea how to remove the center vents so I can get to the screws on the PCM module?

TIA

The horseshoe trim around the PCM can be replaced using a dental hook, start at the bottom of each side and gently pull, then work your way around. VERY easy

The flat section has 2 screws at the back and then just lifts up and slides back as i recall, there are no more screws

Frank, any chance you want to sell the parts that you are taking out?

My driver side door trim is pretty dented and if yours is in good shape, I´d like to buy it from you.
