Does anyone know how to remove the center console on like an 03 mustang? I hav a Haynes and the instructions are crap. I have all the fasteners loose, but I do not seem to be able to manuver the console around the handbrake. Any help is appreciated.

my95gtstang said:push in the button on the handbrake and pull it up as far as u can. it has to be like completely strait up or as strait as you can get it. also you need to open your console *where you put stuff in* there should be two screws on the top of it, undo those and pull out the black piece *the thing you put stuff in* and under that there are two more bolts you have to undo then you can lift the back of the console out. i just did this over the weekend in my 96 and they should be the exact same. since we are on the topic does anyone know a good website that has all interior parts i can buy? OEM and aftermarket? i want to work on my interior but i cant find a site with that many interior products.....ebay even doesnt have much.

Tally_4.6 said:I removed the center console a few months ago to clean in and around there cause the previous owner was a damn pig. Anyway, i had everything unbolted and all the connections disconnected and i attempted to take it out of the car. In the process i threw the e-brake up as far as i could and snapped the damn cable, i do not recommend doing this. Just unbolt the e-brake mount screws and move it around so that you can take it out. Then when you put it back in just do it in reverse and bolt the mount screws back in before you secure the console. Big pain in the a$$.
Oya the springs. In all honesty i forgot how i did all that, I remember it was kinda tricky.paultippit said:I thought about that, but am not familiar with the tension mechanism. My vision of springs flying every where concerns me. However, based on what you have said I think it is probably the only thing I can do.
