Removal of AOD shifter bezel in '92 GT

JJP92GThatch48K · Apr 22, 2021

I just bought the Daniel Carpenter Cup Holder center console panel from LMR
and I need to know how to get the AOD shifter bezel up so I can take out the
2 screws at the front of this panel. I've watched a video on installing this panel,
but it was in a 5-speed and the shifter bezel removal looked very simple.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Jeff

It's the same way. There are four clips (2 on each side) that hold the shifter trim plate down. You just need to use a non-marring tool to pry up to release them. Go slowly, as this clips can break if you are too aggressive. The 5-spd's are easy because you can put your fingers down into the hole where the shift boot is and lift up. The same motion will release the AOD plate.

Here's the underside of the AOD shifter plate. You can see the clips on the edgesd

Yes, I guess I should have tried removal before making this post!
I used my wide-blade putty knife and using gentle pressure it
popped right off! I also popped off the 2 covers at the back end
of the console to reach the screws on each side to remove the
armrest so I can get to the 2 screws holding the back end of the
new center panel! Now all I need is for FedEx to deliver the panel.
Thanks, Jeff
