Thanks for your help. I will try to do a 'Haynes' for the installation - if I remember
Happy new year.
There should be a couple of torx screws under the gear stick gator try removing them might give you some extra lift failing that there should be torx screws down each side of the console in the foot wells . If it still doesn't give you the lift then you need to take the trim off round the radio and heater controls nd remove the 2 torx from below the heater controls this will allow you to pop the edges if the cup holder bit at the front ...... think you should have enough room with out doing most of that thoughhjgtiger wrote:Before I order, want to check how easy it will be to fit the alloy mount casting as it appears to need to be inserted under the edge of the loosened console. I have removed cupholder and rear torx screw and can lift/bend the lhs of the console enough to give about a 30 - 35 mm gap (not enough from the Aliexpress pics), after that further movement needs releasing 'something else' on the console fixings! Any suggestions?
Just looked at the pics of the holder it doesn't look that thick you might find it's not much bigger than 35mmhjgtiger wrote:Before I order, want to check how easy it will be to fit the alloy mount casting as it appears to need to be inserted under the edge of the loosened console.

If you reply to my thread it comes up with a tab that had a square and a paper clip etc click the square and it lets you upload that way and il be as helpful as possible I'm sure it won't be an issuehjgtiger wrote:Just placed my order.
Spent all morning working out what may need to come out to fit it.

That's quite strange not sure on the tab etchjgtiger wrote:I do not get what you show on either my Tab S or my Win 10 laptop
All I get is a row of boxes above the text box with:
B i u Quote Code List List= [*] Img URL Font colour youtube
in them. The 'Img' icon just puts the word 'Img' in the text box, so still at a loss regarding inserting pics.
It appears that 'TapaTalk' gives the paperclip + other icons - but the attachment does not show in the posting - just the coding!2015_polo wrote:That's quite strange not sure on the tab etchjgtiger wrote:I do not get what you show on either my Tab S or my Win 10 laptop
