Hello,

I need to replace the switch for the e-brake warning light which is in the =
console behind the e-brake.  I have a new switch from the dealer, but I nee=
d to remove the console that begins just behind the shift boot and extends =
back to to the rear AC vents.  Has anyone done this?

I have removed the two screws on either side of the back end of the console=
, and the one under that little plastic panel just below the e-brake handle=
, yet it still feels secure and not sure what else I need to do to get it o=
ut, or at least up enough so I can replace this switch.  Does the e-brake h=
andle have to come off?  What about the diff-lock switch?  How do I get the=
 diff lock switch panel out?  Just pry at it enough (gently of course), or =
is there some secret?

Any help or advice appreciated.

Please publish any tips to the entire list.

Thanks,
Dan
