    So. That didn't last long. Ordering flat ones instead of using a curved helmet mount like I did.

    I am considering doing the same thing to my center console. How did you get yours off to paint it?painted center console.jpg

    pretty simple really:
    1. Unscrew shift knob
    2. push in on the sides of the "tray" About where the front edges of the seat line up. Should hear a pop or two. It will be a bit tight the first few times you do this (I've taken it off a few times, notorious for spilling coffee)
    3. Lift up and off
    The cup holder is just as easy, center piece pulls up, reach down in the pocket in front of the cup holder, and using your finger tips to pull it out. The Pops are just the clips popping free.

    THANKS! I've tried, and I'm just afraid of breaking something. I'll just give it another try!

    If you can wait, I can try to take a video of it on monday, suppose to be 50 out. So you can see how I've done it. I was a bit afraid at first as well, until I watched a friend just go in and remove half of my dash and made me look like a little B*tch.

    Once you pop that first piece and see, it gets easier.

    I'm not in a hurry, since I had to order the paint, and I might take a week or more to get here.

    That's what I'm getting, but no one has Radiant Red in stock, not listed in Duplicolor, so ordered some from a specialty maker that did some for my Corvair a couple of years ago.
