Removing overhead console F22

CineNate35 · 05-15-2019, 05:47 PM

Hey folks,

How is the overhead console removed? I'm swapping out the lighting portion and I don't see anything specific for the F22.

Thanks!

Use a plastic pry tool to pop off the rear half covers.

Then use a metal screwdriver to pry the two rear spring "V" clips to the side, (or center, can't remember but it's obvious - pry against resistance) and use a 3rd lever to push the rear down. I believe the front end slides down and out. Looking for the metal "V" clips is the key.
