Gents, Anyone have a part number or an idea where to get a replacement OEM rear electrical console. I'm about to butcher my one and want to be able to go back to stock if it all goes pear shaped.
Thanks
That seems like it should be the right answer, but for some reason I've found 5th gens to be extremely rare in junk yards. I don't know where they go. Sure, they don't break down but they do get wrecked on a regular basis.
With great difficulty! The bezel it's self pops out easy once you can get to the back of it. This requires taking off the storage tray above it which is fixed with some tabs and 2 screws that you can only get to if you remove the entire rear quarter panel. OR simply pry up the panel so you can get in with a flexible screwdriver and remove the screws. To be honest after trying for 30 mins without success I just snapped off the plastic screw mounts and removed the storage tray that way. This now reveals the inverter and the back of the panel, just disconnect the plugs, push in the 4 plastic tabs which hold it in place and pop it out.
Hope this helps?
