I just took my console apart last week, not to scare you but it wont be an easy job! it took me about 8 hours work to remove the console and changing the trim on it and install it back. if you just wanna remove the console only without changing the trim it might take you less time but it wont be an easy job too! I'm going to bed now, tomorrow I will send you the link which has all the instructions how to remove the console, as for the radio that is easy. I'll tell you how tomorrow. send me a message in case I forget ok.
