Removing interior trim pieces
how do you remove the trim piece that goes around the stereo and climate control that holds the volume **** in place?...gonna fill that volume **** hole since i no longer need it
Pull out the penny cup at the end of that trim console, you'll see some screw. Remove them. Pop out the gears plate, disconnect 2 harnesses, remove more screw under there. Then pull the trim out. To remove the gears plate you probably have to remove the shift **** by removing two screws on the shift know after sliding the plastic part at the bottom down.
Climate Control Removal
Slide sleeve down from bottom of shifter to reveal two screws and remove screws. Shifter will lift off.

Pull cupholder upwards grabbing from the inside of the cup for leverage. It is only held on with pressure tabs so it will lift out, may be tough to lift out, may not be. Try lifting from the back flap side where the pressure tabs are.

Pop shifter plate off, again only on pressure tabs like the cupholder. Unplug plate from car and remove the screws from the back and front near the ashtray.

Now simply lift the rear of the console cover and pull backwards to slide console cover out of console. Then unplug ***** and cig plug.
The rest is self explanatory as it is just screws holding the radio cage and of course unplug the climate and radio.
