| Re: removal of cigarette lighter / handbrake / ashtray surround base unit thingy Pull out insert in the fagash bit, and under you should see a couple of torx. That's the main ones which hold it down. If you need the whole tunnel you thats a bit of a pain. Pull the cupholder out the very end, and again, should be a couple of torx under there too. It clips into the "C"shaped bit around the dash from underneath. However, you should be able to remove the fagash bit OK, and just invert the gearknob gaitor, if you just want to rummage around for something.

| Re: removal of cigarette lighter / handbrake / ashtray surround base unit thingy I did stick some double sided black foam tape on it. Cured it for a while but it was an ugly solution.
