Help removing gear stick surround on 2007 LGT auto?


Mattsti

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, trying to figure out what I need to remove in order to replace the headunit. This is for a 2007 LGT jdm automatic.

 

Looks like the gear stick surround needs to come off to allow the ashtray panel to be removed. Any ideas on how to do this? Levering it up feels like it'll snap.

From what I remember that silver surrounding has 4 clips underneath, pretty easy to snap them.

 

Use a plastic interior removal tool to gently pry and lift the surrounding, first lift the handbrake side as it's the easiest to get under. You only need to remove the surrounding.

Then pull the ashtray assembly and off you go.

PS: flick your gear selector  into D, will give you a bit more room. I'd also cover the center console with a towel to avoid scratches on glossy surfaces.

Yup clips at 10, 2, 5 and 7 o'clock. Plastic trim tool from the inside. Incidentally this is also how you access the shift lock release on models without a button. Pop the trim out and you'll see a small round hole at about the 2 o'clock point that you can insert either the ignition key or a small flat blade screwdriver to release the shift lock.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
