Recently I've replaced the console bezel. Everything was actually easier thn I expected. My only problem is removing the ash tray door from the old console bezel. Has anyone done this and if so haw do you get those pain in the neck bushings off. Thanks ahead for any suggestions.

There is a pin in the middle of the bushing,when the pin is all the way in it expands the bushing and holds the door solid.carefully push the pins out and remove them ,then you can wiggle the bushings out,don't loose the pins you can reuse them and the bushings.just reverse the procedure to install them Thumbs%20Up
