the silver around the A/C, the WHOLE SILVER THING!
JUST RIP IT OUT! it has clips....pull str8 out....
get a flat head screwdriver, put a towel on the end to pry it out....
try not to damage the DASH, IT WILL DAMAGE THE DASH if you do it wrong.....
pry it out with the tips of your fingers.....
BE CAREFUL, dont rip it out that much that you will pull the wires out of the A/C controls, and the Head Unit controls....

yea the power outlet piece comes out with just clips, then you reach up under it and there are two screws... use a small screwdriver to get them, then the whole chunk just comes right out on clips.

take out the cig lighter plate and look up you'll see two 8mm / phillips head screws. take them out and then pull on the dash piece. it is tough and in my experience your going to loose atleast 1-2 clips

My car didn't have those 2 screws. I've always been able to pull it out with no problem.
