I'm working on my 2003 SE. I need to remove the entire center armrest assembly but I can't undo the rear section. Its probably under the rear cup-holder drawer.

I have the 3 screws from each side removed. The front end near the shifter is also ready. Its the backside with the cup-holders and 12V end that is stuck. Its probably something simple. The search is finding all kinds of 4th gen info.

 

screws inside armrest...at the bottom of the compartment

 

fyi: dunno why i'm posting it, but it's a nice diagram of the console:

pretty diagram

 

It worked. I thought I checked everywhere, but obviously I missed the one underneath the mat in the arm-rest. I really appreciate the help. Next time your in Calgary...beers on me.

FYI.
I finished stripping the interior. I'll spend the rest of the weekend layering some sound deadener.

 

so, i answered the question

and to think, all i do on here is "flame people"

 

.org bully!
