How do I remove the bezel around the foglights? Can it be done from the front or do I have to remove the wheel well cover from behind it?

- Also -

How do I remove the rear seat tray? (The plastic piece between the rear seats)

For the Fog Covers, I just yank real hard from the front...

There are release tabs, but they are a PITA !!

I haven't broke one yet..

For the rear center console, you'll need to remove the seat cushion. Once removed, look from the underside and you'll know what to do.

here is a quick tutorial. I did not get into a lot of detail as most of the pictures will speak for themselves.

They will remove from the front, but note the drivers side one has a wiring harness attached on the upper prong from the inside. I also broke a prong off, trying to remove them this way

Release fender liner (2 clips) and pry apart from bumper - it is flexible and will allow you to reach in.



To remove the surround - it is held on by locking prongs, feeling around you will find the release tabs on all 4 corners - it seems to be easiest to pull on the outside, at the same time you release each one from the inside - the drivers side one has a wire harness connector on the upper left prong that will need removal as well - it should simply slide off with moderate pressure



The washer fluid piping lines are squared around the fog light, but no need to remove them, they are really not in the way

To my amazement the fog housing is only held on by one screw - I wondered why it giggled a bit? Remove the screw and the light will slide out.



The other side is just locked in by a bar system - with no screws, and is the reason for the free play.

The OEM ones were wrapped by my friends over @ AeroTect

Thanks for the info guys!

Hmm... taking off the fog cover from the front would be easier, but I risk breaking a tab... Hmmmmm.... whattodo, whattodo...

So there's no way of removing the rear seat tray without taking out the seat cushions? I guess it's the same thing: If I pull from the front I'd risk breaking tabs... *sigh* so much work for this lazy ****...

i dont think u need to remove the seat cushion to remove the middle tray. try to pull it towards the front, pulling towards the front seat. becareful as it has hooks that are latch on to 2 metal bars and probably some tabs. taking it off is easy putting it back on is the hard part.

New owner here, dredging up decade-old posts...
My car's rear seat tray is deeply scratched and I am interested in getting a new one wrapped in a silver Texalium-look print to match or at least get somewhat close to the OEM front center console appearance. It seems FX Auto Design does not do this type of work any more. Does AeroTect in LaVerne do one-off's for customers? They seem to be a distribution house now.

Trying to find an installer who specializes in this type of work...


Think Design type look...

For sure AeroTect has moved onto distributions and training.. No longer working on customer cars.

Matching wrap will be difficult.

There has to be a few companies still here in USA. That will actually take your damaged part and can potentially refinish to match the Silver Texalium we have on doors and front console..

Let me dig around a bit or let's see if any other members chime in.

Thanks Joe. I contacted Elvin Wong via FB. He has made CF skins for the rear seat tray, using the factory part, but not in the Texalium (silver, OEM-like) finish.
