zhotster Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Long time, no posting for me! I love my 2008 Edge, it's a great car. I need to pull out the center floor console, I took out a number of bolts and it doesn't move. I would appreciate help on this, as I need it out by tomorrow evening. Thank you to anyone that can help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k_m Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Long time, no posting for me! I love my 2008 Edge, it's a great car. I need to pull out the center floor console, I took out a number of bolts and it doesn't move. I would appreciate help on this, as I need it out by tomorrow evening. Thank you to anyone that can help! Here are the procedures I have: 1. Remove the storage bin. 2. Remove the 2 scrivets. 3. Disconnect the power point electrical connector. 4. Remove the 2 floor console front side bolts. 5. Remove the 2 floor console-to-instrument panel bolts. 6. Disconnect the floor console electrical connector from the lower right front wiring harness. 7. Remove the floor console. 8. To install, reverse the removal procedure Also see attached diagram Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhotster Posted January 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Thanks you SO MUCH k_m, this is exactly what I needed. I think while I have this out, I'm going to do the light in the cupholder mod. I'll dive into this tonight, I had taken out quite a few screws and the thing wouldn't budge. The seats are so tight to the console on this vehicle! Thanks again, I really appreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhotster Posted January 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I was able to get the console out, but it was far more work than k_m's instructions. I had a buddy help me and it took more screws to get the console out. There is a surround and then the internal plastics to the console. FYI, it's so complex that I can't write the instructions again . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k_m Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Glad to see you were able to get it out. Sorry that the instructions I have were not sufficient. If I ever do have to take ours our, I will post more details and include photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhotster Posted January 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 k_m, no problem at all. The instructions were good and helpful. I would've liked to have taken photos myself, but I didn't have time to do it. It was a real pain to get out, if I were to do it again I would pull both front seats.

SimplyBao Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 My first post!!! I just got my '08 SEL the other day and there is something rattling inside the center console. I wanted to remove the cup holders to see if I could see anything. Can I just pull up on it and it will come loose? In the picture, it's #1....thanks for your help!

I believe so, but not entirely sure. I have never removed it, but by the way it looks its only held into the unit by clip hooks. I would be very gentle and try to ease it out. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
