How to remove ashtray lid cover trim???

Hi All,

I have a facelift S205 c43 and want to swap the glossy black centre console with a different colour. I have sourced a different console in the colour I want but cannot work out how to remove the trim piece from the ashtray lid.

there is a very helpful YouTube video online, which covers the whole console removal process.

https://youtu.be/JxcUwBexeeg?si=A41_hAYbPfB-5n0u

At around 5 mins, the guy removes the lid trim and makes it look so easy but I cannot do the same! I can’t work out at all how to remove the trim.

does anyone know how to do it????

Re:

Thank you for that Andy, sorry I should have been more clear, I mean the actual lid cover I.e the ash wood grain cover as per below pic



in the video I posted, it shows the cover just being pulled off the lid but I cannot figure out how to do it!
