center console very much closed
when i bought my fair lesabre way back when (actually, guess it'* been about 3 months or so), the center console was stuck shut. i'm guessing there should be some sort of handle or something that you use to open it up - which in my case would be broken.
Well, i'm finally getting tired of having no cup holders, so i was wondering how the mechanism works... so i can try to open it up.
any thoughts on how to crack that thing open?
i might be able to take some pics later today when i get home...

well, it'* deff not a pull open type - there'* some sort of latch holding that sucker together. based on jr3800'* pics there, i'm gonna guess that there used to be some sort of handle there that released the latch, and that it'* long gone...
so i guess tomorrow i'll have to see if there'* anyway to get somethin down in there to release the latch. any chance that any of our dealership friends has pics for what this sucker is supposed to look like?
