Remove Ashtray compartment LS430 2003?
Hello- I'm looking for help or advice on how to either remove the ashtray or gear shift cover on a 2003 LS430. I had a SD Memory card slip through the opening between the ashtray cover and the center panel. I purchased trim removal tools to attempt myself but I'm ready to give up & turn to the dealership and pay the $300 they quoted. If the digital card was new I'd leave it be but this one is filled with a year's worth of photos of my kids so I have no choice but to tear the car apart. I'm new to Club Lexus but figured I'd give a try to find a member out there that may know an easier way to access underneath the center console before I give in!
