Ignition "start" button fell inside - WTF ?
So I went to turn my car on today and the START button actually feel inside inside the console. I'm about 4k miles out of the standard 3/36k mile warranty so I'm assuming this won't be covered (calling later just to make sure).
Does anyone know how to access the inside portion of the start/ignition? I'm assuming the great/silver area around it needs to come off but I don't want to start forcefully removing things without knowing for sure.

I searched around but I didn't see any details around how I can access the button. The start button it self cannot be popped out, it goes in deep - almost past my fingers. I'd have to get back there somehow

Any help or tips to open up the "start" button section would be greatly appreciated. Scratched up the area pretty good trying to pry it open but it looks like I'll do more damage without knowing what to open first.

I've been in there twice, it's pretty easy. Just pull down on the shifter boot to separate it from the shift ****, remove the retaining clip, lift off the shift ****. Then open the center console and start prying up on the console trim piece, work your way from back to front. It takes a pretty good tug. I think there was a video on removing the stereo in the "Apple Car Play" thread that should be helpful since you have to remove this piece to get the stereo out.
