How to Remove trim over tunnel?
Discussion
So been staring at this blankly for about an hour now.
Have remove the 4 screws at the front/back of the trim but clearly the door release know need to come off but for the life of me I can't figure this out
No doubt it's going to be insanely simple and I'll need to sit in the corner with a big pointy hat.

I didn't have to remove the door release knob on mine: just a bit of dexterous wiggling got the central unit over it and also over the handbrake lever.

Wish same was true for mine. It's tighter than a Nunns......R
Want to try and avoid splitting the gaitor if pos.
Cheers

There's a spring clip in the knob. It is a real fiddle. It has a real spring to it so take care. Didn't do it on mine as the leather was already split due to problems in the past no doubt.
Hmmm not seeing it. When you say in the knob do you mean under the button on top?Derek Smith said:
I'm afraid I can't get my camera into a position to photograph it.
The catch is on the knob itself, at the front, low down.
Hope this helps.
It might be worth checking the age of the car, perhaps the early ones had springs, but a lot have a little grub screw ( allen key style) low down, you need to loosen that off and slide it up. Don't fully remove the screw. depending on the age of the car you may have 2 seperate pieces of central trim cover or just one, in the single versiln the cables for the doors are threaded thru the trim, making it even more fun!The catch is on the knob itself, at the front, low down.
