Default How to get underneath/remove storage console?

I am trying to get some wiring from the nav to the center console storage box. I know there is a trap door at the bottom but I am trying to figure out how to get the wires to come out of there. Anyone got any ideas/tips?

Sounds like you'll need to remove the center console altogether in order to fish the wiring through there.

Just did this 2 days ago.

Need to remove stereo/ shifter/ ashtray.
Snap off whole back panel of center console, the one with ac vents.
Then remove 6 silver screws from back to front of car on center panel.
Pull center console back towards you while sitting in rear seat.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the help! It was hard to get it lined up again putting it back but I just think the difficulty was caused by running the wiring underneath!
