Center Console Questions
ok... I need to figure out how to get the black vent duct out of one console and into another. The part that holds the rear vents on has broke off mine. And looking at it, I need to get that whole piece out. I looked at it and located 2 screws on the bottom, which I can get, but it looks like the other 2 screws I need are inside the console and hold the latch and compartment piece on. But I can' figure out how to get those two off.
Here is the good one. I broke the left black piece off

Here is a bad picture of the 2 screws I can't get to. They are on either sides on the cig lighter and point back towards it.

you have to loosen the inner black vent extender and slid it down and towards the front of the car. The bracket that holds the door hinge is actually 2 bolts that points back and down on both sides of the cig lighter. You remove 2 nuts and the lid spring ***. comes right off.
