Remove Prewire?

[c43]

Looking potentially at a used W204, but it has telephone prewire, which from my understanding after seeing cars in the showroom, means I lose half of my centre storage box?

If I am correct, how easy is it to remove this part so I gain all the space back.

Probably would use phone over bluetooth only.

I wouldn't consider removing anything, you wouldn't gain a thing. There's enough space in the console, and if not, that's what the boot is for.

As Aoraki says, bad idea.

Only want to remove the connector box thing in the storage console - was just wondering if the whole thing unclipped out or something. Gaining about 40% of the space back is something I would find a good a thing

Is it not possible to move to say the glove box?

Let me see its around £400 as a factory fit option and about £1000 as an aftermarket fit and you're looking to remove it?? Hmmm .....

If the 204 is anything like the 203 you can simply remove the cradle from the connector in the centre cubby. This will just leave a socket which would normally have a cover on cars without cradles as supplied
