centre oddment tray removal.
Does anyone know how to remove the centre oddment tray under the arm rest.I just want to lift out the insert so I can put the control unit for my Invision monitor system in the centre console nicely tucked away.
Thanks

It should just slide out. I grabbed the inside of the sides and lifted. It came up with no problem. Hope this helps.

IIRC, there is some double stick tape or something that holds the edges on but other than that, just pull it out.

This is what I did awhile back.



The rulers unlatched the tray and it came out.

Hope this helps

sorry guys, that is not the tray I mean.I am referring to the large bin in the lower part of the centre console.It has a small area for loose change, I believe on some cars it has CD holders or even tape holders.It is a deep oddment tray, I think I saw that some people on the site have placed their I-PODS in there.any new advise.
