   Correct, I also re-wrapped my carbon vinyl. I originally wrapped the center trim in place and wanted to make it a little cleaner.

   that looks superb.

   is the trim piece on the passenger side dashboard the regular aluminum? Or did you wrap that a color to friction match the interior? It looks unlike...in a practiced way.

    The dash trim is the original aluminum but I am going to pull that off soon and wrap in carbon vinyl as well.

    Are you lot talking virtually this lighting?

    If that is what yous're talking about then you do demand to remove the console and trim. The light is under the trim so it needs to come up off first. On the plus side, removing the console looks harder than it is. It goes fast. If I had to do it again it would take xv mins. Prob take an 60 minutes kickoff run with these instructions and the correct tools.

    Excellent write-up! Swapped out the Dark Walnut trim for Piano Black last dark. Very straight forrad, took merely shy of two hours from showtime to finish. Would've been quicker, simply I was doing information technology in between cooking dinner. ;)

    Give thanks yous!

    Took me a few hours to complete. Took my time with the panel panel removal. I had trouble removing the center panel. Would not just slide out. Eventually something gave and it came out. Couldn't tell you how. Then putting information technology back in took some force to get the back bracket into the proper place.

    Additional small note: to release the MMI port door you will need to release a tab under information technology. You can see it in the picture above on the lesser left. Reach through the small area from the back and press it to the right with a finger while you slide the door off.

    Thanks once more for the walkthrough.

    So I followed these steps, and after putting everything together I have quite a few problems:
    - Ac doesn't work
    - Speedometer doesn't work
    - Steering wheel buttons and handles around it don't work
    - Windows only work when holding their handle
    - Parking sensors don't work

    I've checked all 3 fuse boxes and they seem to exist alright. Any ideas?

    Hello

    Do I have to go through every step higher up just to remove the silver trim to wrap it or tin I follow just part 2 as I don't desire to remove the unabridged center panel. How piece of cake does information technology all go back as worried in one case I remove information technology all that it wont get back and then I volition be buggered. Also don't want to put it back together to notice warnings like above then have to remove it all again. thanks

    For a C7 this is very like shooting fish in a barrel and you merely accept to pop up the shift boot. If y'all have a 2011 your automobile is actually a C6 though (at least in the U.s.).

    Does anyone know if in that location is a fan or dampener in this center console that could restrict air period? I�one thousand only getting partial air flow for rear climate control. Looking through this thread cannot confirm I see a fan unit. When the car is off, I kind of hear a struggling fan. And then I keep thinking that�s my upshot.

    Thank you!!!! your very detailed instructions kept me from going insane. I followed your guide to remove the rear of the console to observe one of my kids had dropped a paperclip inside one of the vent holes, that kept making a metallic to plastic noise every time I took a turn :)
    yay problem solved :):)
