Goliath Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I'm looking to remove the chrome shifter trim ring so I can paint it. Does anyone know if it can be removed and if so how? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2_From_NH Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 What color are you going to paint it? I personally like teal, and have been playing around with the idea of repainting some of my interior pieces. Looking at this, it looks like the center console trim lifts up, and then judging by this it looks like the shifter trim ring is held on by screws. If you've never done this before, be careful, since you don't want to either twist and break anything or over tighten the screws on reassembly.

Goliath Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 Thanks for the info. I'm just looking to paint the chrome ring part a matte black to help reduce glare from the sun when I'm driving. It'll match the rest of the dash when I'm done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inspiredbyhorsepower Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Here's the back side of the chrome ring. Note 3 screws for removal. To get the whole center console up and out do as follows: Pull up while holding the rear of the cup holder area. There are 6 clips total and the stubborn 2 at the front will require trim removal tools as shown.

inspiredbyhorsepower Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Also I just discovered you have to remove the surround that the e-brake lever mounts to. 2 clips and 4 screws on the back side.
