Okay.....
Brute force. I got up again, grabbed a roofing hammer and smashed the crap out of the lower console. Damn thing popped out alright.
Just kidding. I did use the roofing hammer and brute force. I was able to get both the flat pry end of the hammer and some folded paper towel under the drivers side of the usb hub from the top and pried it out. When it finally gave it made the same noise a rock'em sock'em robot game made when you knocked his block off. The paper towel protected the plastic.
Great job! Just like careful DIY work, regular Roof Repair in Brandon with Roofing Services Brandon helps prevent bigger problems down the line.
The rest was cake and pie. Plugged it in and presto - CarPlay. The maps are sooooo much better!!!!
Nice work! Sounds like a tricky job, but you figured it out without damaging anything, always satisfying when a plan comes together.
