Assuming you mean taking the ashtray housing out of the dash, not actually removing the rotating tray from the housing, here's my rendition:

1. Remove the shifter trim from the center console (you can either use a putty knife or something similar, or you can just use your finger, which is what I did)
2. The ashtray housing is held in place with 5 screws and 2 clips - unscrew all 5, and then pop it out from the dash assembly
3. There are 2 wiring plugs that must be undone...one is the hazard light, and IIRC the other is for the light inside the ashtray
Hope that helps!
