Help - How to replace "Center Dash Upper Storage Compartment"

The way I remember doing it recently is popped both those air conditioning vents off very carefully you break them and you're screwed everybody thinks they're worth $400 a piece once that's done you'll see screws and whatnot right next to the whole mess to take that door off that cup out the radio out etc look carefully I have no way to mark the screws for you and put a picture up I can't ever make it work more frustrating than not it's a very simple procedure to get the clear door off mine won't open because it's warped and when you push the open it it just sticks I have to move way over to the far left corner push and it'll open and come out My pin is still intact

 

Look for youtube videos for removing the MFD. That will get you 90% of the way to where you need to be, and it will expose all the remaining fasteners you'll need to remove in order to pop the storage area out for replacement.

Remember the AC vents get pulled straight out. Use a trim tool at the bottom and top. Wiggle it into the gap at the bottom/top and pry slowly outward. If it's very brittle, sometimes nothing will save it from cracking, but I've had a lot of success using this method, even on vents that are already cracked.

 

Because I know where the yellow click fasteners are on the vents sometimes I take a little WD-40 and just give it a little shot where those yellow things are and then when I use my fingernails on top and bottom of the vents they slide right out without incident usually.
