How to remove centre console.

#nsx #ccu #audioheadunit #ccucircuitboard #climatecontrolunit #centreconsole


I always referred the owners to NSX Prime member BrianK's NSX e-repair website (http://nsxe-repair.com/) for this procedure and I thought I wrote similar thing in the past but couldn't find it.
As I got the same question many times recently, decided to make something using the photo from RHD model.
All photos are from 2011 so some of them are not in ideal angle but hope you can get the idea.





The procedure doesn't have to be in this order.

Probably the biggest challenge is to remove the centre air vent.

Please pay extra attention to the first 3 photos!

Pull the parking brake lever up as high as possible.

Watch out for the hazard light/indicator switch while lifting the centre console in the next step.


Be careful not to bend the centre console too much especially around the red marked area.
You could cause wrinkles over the top coating.
[Some country/model spec (early UK models, some of JDM special models, etc) don't have coated layers and thus, much easier to work with.]
