I have been trying to remove the center box , so that I can look at the DVD drive, whether or not I can install another one. I 'm having a hard time removing it. D you have any instructions on removing DVD drive?

Thanks in advance,

Prathab

Per the instructions on your PDF, it says remove the screw on the center box upper lid. I don't know where exactly its at? I am looking above the glove box lib and I don't see a screw there. Perhaps, I need to take something else apart, so that I can get to that screw.

As you probably figured by now, I'm a newbie to this type of work. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Could you give me a couple of steps that you followed for you to remove the center box, when you installed your NAV? I have the same PDF as well. It's not very clear as to what screws need to be removed for the center box to be removed.

Thanks,
