8. The center console must come out to install the e-brake boot so,
we have to take out the 3 screws in the centre console compartment, 2 screws
which are on both sides of the center console towards the front (these screws
have caps on them, to take off the caps carefully pry with a small screw driver
until they pop out), lastly there are 2 screws which are hidden and to get to
these screws you would have to take out the compartment under the radio and the
little trim piece above that. The 2 screws are hidden behind the trim piece
between the radio and the compartment that's under the radio.
9. Now that all the screws are out disconnect the 2 wires going to
the cigarette lighter and make sure there isn't anything else connected to the
center console.
10. Carefully take out the center console out the car (takes a little
patience)
11. Now flip the center console and you will see how the e-brake boot
is attached. There are 5 tabs which are melted on, to take them off I used a
flat head screw driver and a torch, heat the screw driver and place it in the
middle of the tabs and gently wiggle the piece off it. Once you free the 5 trim
pieces from the center console you can just pull it right out along with the
shift boot.
12. Now you will see that there are a couple of staples. Take off the
staples using a screw driver or similar and take the boot off the trim piece.
