If you mean "screws" then there are 2 at the front low down at the corners of the console and 1 maybe 2 under the triangular pad in the rear of the console! hope that helps

On my 94 with the same position of door release, it is just one screw under triangle cover then slide console towards the rear of car, as part of the front of the console has "fingers" that go into slots on body. Hope that helps

Thats the way - single screw at the rear, manipulate back rearwards + upwards until 'tongues' clear then forwards upwards off the handbrake. You have to REALLY release all tension on the handbrake cable (adjuster above os drive shaft/diff) to achieve success wink

Some of the 'tongues' seem to be far longer than they need to be, have a look at the fitment and you may be able to trim them down a bit to make re-assembly & future removal easier.

I think a few have even chopped them off and added self tappers in the past.
