    I have an 05’ Limited DC. I have the overhead console w/compass temperature, homelink, sunglasses storage, etc. I was trying to remove it. I removed the 2 screws inside the sunglasses storage area. As far as I have read, that is all it takes to remove the unit but I pulled twisted and everything else with no luck. I don’t wanna pull too hard and break something. Am I missing something? More fasteners somewhere? Help appreciated!

    As you can see in below pic, there are 2 small clips that help hold it up and what I'll call a quide clip that is at the windshield end., but they should release relatively easily. After I remove the 2 screws, I just pull down on the rear of the console and it should just come right off.

    Edit: nevermind, this is for the access cab and I just noticed yours is a DC.

    Leaving this here in case an AC guy ends up needing it.



    If the little plastic clip breaks, here's the part # for a replacement:
