if youre talking about a 4th gen lude, youre going to want to completely remove the surrounding console, the little compartment below comes out with it, so it isnt necessary to seperate the two at this point.. the console is held on by screws on he lower right and left and by several at the very top above your HU.. you should see anything holding on the HU once it is removed.. and put your gear in reverse before you try and yank the bastard off
