I just got my new tri ax in the mail today and I'm about to go install the thing, but I just wanted to check and see if anybody has any advice on how NOT to break the center console piece that's gotta come out to do it. It's going in an '04 GT and I don't know if there's some trick to it besides just being careful. Thanks.

Do you know where to lift up on the console? Put your thumbs underneath and lift up under the plastic ring that's around your shifter boot. There will be about 6 (correct me if I'm wrong, been awhile) "clips" you'll be lifting up. It should pop out easy.

Just rip the sucker out. I pulled mine out today, really easy to do. Just pull straight up.

1. Follow the instructions that come with the Tri Ax. They work

If you don't have them get them. I'll send them to you if you need.

It's really easy. You don't need to "rip" anything out. Just put your fingers under the plastic ring where the shift boot connects and gentelly and evenly pull up. It's really that simple.
