Whip one of your seats out, takes 5 mins and makes it hell of lot easier and quicker to fit the centre console  :wink:

Hadn't planned on removing mine today but i did  :grin: wasn't to bad i found after removing the screws and plastic nuts pulled the rear section away then pulled Hard! on the handbrake  :laugh: got the front so far then pulled to one side and took the handbrake off and eased it over the gearstick all done
