unscrew the handle, pull it off, then pull the nut off - you should, if you angle the shifter rod correctly, be able to pull the auto surround out! icon_wink.gif

icon_lol.gif Squeeze with left hand if in drivers seat, or both if you feel unconfident, and turn your hands ANTI clockwise, the first time you unscrew it, it will be firm, so turn hard. As if you are holding a screw driver. Try it...

Cheers

It helps the 1st time to use a shifting spanner within a cloth (so not to wreck the nut) whilst turing it..
Keep at it and it will just simply unscrew.

As said: Anti-Clockwise to Remove!

these young ones should be butchers!!! undo the lock nut to stop the risk of snapping the button! and i believe there is a second skin under the console attatched to the floor.
