    Hi everyone,

    I tried to remove the power outlet from the console box cover, but it seemed impossible to me. That little piece of plastic is too hard to push out. Do you have any manuals, or pictures, how to do that? Thanks!

    Looks as if it might need to be rotated? Have you tried? (…just a suggestion!)

    I got it out by depressing the plastic latch with a pair of stout needle nose pliers.

    I remember it being somewhat difficult, but definitely not too difficult. Obviously I wasn't concerned about damaging it. (Maybe the attitude helps.)
