ok. the part around your ebrake pops off with a flathead. then there are two screws that you need to remove. remove the two clips on the outside of the center console towards the front, and the two screws on either side of the rear cupholder. unscrew your shiftknob. remove the center console. just pull forward on the cig lighter piece.

where do you live?

yo integ guess you still couldn't get it off, sorry i couldn't be of help, what i told you was how i remembered it. I got the vtec light on mine, it was cool when i first put it in to see where the vtec comes on and all, but now its just annoying and i put the light behind the dash so i can't see it anymore.

There are two screws holding the cig lighter piece in that you have to remove the center console to get to. Or at least pull in back.
