Need help removing armrest console
I'm trying to put back one piece of my dash and don't want to force anything. From the looks of it, I need to loosen the armrest/cupholder console but don't see any screws or anything visible. I've attached a picture to show what I'm referring to. All I need to do is to move the armrest console back a few inches so I can squeeze the panel to the right of the stereo back in. Can anyone help? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

There are two more right at the back in the bottom of the armrest.
There are 2 locking screws on the side (you know that)
2 screws holding the front.

you must have really pulled and perhaps broken the side piece (right of radio and left of glovebox) That's not suppose to be removed unless you remove your center console first.

Yeah, I thought I might have broke it too but it came off w/o any damage to any part at all. Thanks guys, I was able to get some directions to remove the center console from elsewhere! Wish me luck!
