Default Any guide to disassemble middle console?

Spilled a drink on my middle console, specifically the home, menu, back buttons. Now they are sticky and hard to press. Does anyone know a guide to clean it? Maybe take it apart or will I have to take the car to a dealership?

I made a video on how to take apart the center console to install a NAV bypass module. Here is the link to the video, and it will show you how to take it apart. I would try using an old soft tooth brush and dipping it into some denatured alcohol. Then slowly scrub the switches as the alcohol will dissolve the sticky sugar junk, and hopefully make the buttons work again.

Worst case scenario, you need to replace the switches, but at least you'll save on the labor costs of taking the center console apart with the video below.

Here is link to a video that will show you how to take apart the cetner piece and the radio. I also uploaded the same step by step pdf here.

Hope it helps for whatever you are doing..
