Make sure the upper opening (the one that connects to the main heater system) is unlatched...I used a flathead screwdriver to get under the lip and pop it loose. Then lift the bottom LEFT end up until it pops loose (the end that routes toward the shifter stick). You may have to work your hand up under the paneling that surrounds the shifter stick, but it's flexible enough to allow your hand to fit under it. Finally, I had to make sure the panel below the glove compartment assembly was loose and flapping around so I had enough clearance to remove the entire tube. The panel I mean is made of card, not composite, and mine had the alarm system box attached to it. |
