how to remove frontpanel (central) in c220 elegance 1998

how can I remove the 'wooden' panels in the centre of the car? Want to replaced them with carbon parts.

Already found some small screws but the panel still locks in pretty hard ...

someone who already did this?

thanks upfront

Remove your stereo, then remove the 2x screws underneath the trim lip.

Carefully (but firmly) pull towards you so that it pivots at the top below the heater vents.

it worked like a charm Thanks a lot BBW

ready to cover it with carbon-look now

Also removed the panel from the shiftgear, but it looks like it is glued together with the buttonpanel ... Is there a way to remove the buttons without breaking the panel?

thanks upfront !
