I don't have the instructions anymore, but you just have to use common sense and look for all overlapping panels, and remove the outer panels first. Lets see if I can recall.
Start by opening the center armrest. Pull off the small plastic piece between the armrest and handrest. Then pull off the hand rest.
Pull open (no need to remove completely) the side panel inbetween the door and the glove compartment. Pull off the entire trim above the glove compartment
Pull open (no need to remove completely) the trim thats below the trim below the start button. Then pull off the trim below the start button.
Pull open till 90degrees the trim on the center console where you knee rests, then pull straight off. (both sides)
Carefully pull off the silver trim surrounding the centre console.
Pull the gear shift boot down off the ****. Unscrew the ****. Pull off the entire trim surrounding the gear ****.
Pull off the climate control panel.
If you have actually managed to get this far, you would have exposed two bolts that you can reach with a socket wrench on either side of the player. Undo those and then pull off the player. Now you have access to the rear of the player to install the bypass.
Reverse all the steps to put everything back together.
To be honest, I was totally amazed that ALL that removal and only two bolts were involved. EVERYTHING else was just pull off/snap on.
