To remove that din tray you have to ...

Remove the centre air vents ( easier said than done)

Remove the trim around the gearnob.

Remove the gearnob.

Remove the ashtray ( whole Ass)

Remove the dashboard trim. 4 x screws ( hidden behind the centre air vents and ashtray )

Remove the Stereo ( two screws behind the dashboard trim watching not to stretch the fibre optic cable)

Then when the stereo is fully out , the tray can be slid off the stereo as its attached to it at the top.

Why do you want it out anyways .. hehe ?

It's a mirror image of a left hooker. I guess Dashmount could only find a US picture!

You would still have to take most of the things apart.

Only thing that wouldnt come out would be the stereo

You can get them here. Also look at the Telephone consoles as they might be easier to fit.

Messy does not look good why not fit PDA in glove box along side cd changer this way all is hidden and its closed away from temptation of thieves. i dont think it would be a big hardship to have the g box open when you want to use it ?
