I am buying a used US style centre console for my C43
My trim has euro faux CF looks, US interior trim is wood.
Is it possible to remove the wooden lid from centre console and fit the CF lid instead?
Please check the link below, then you know what I mean.

It should be a straight swap. 2 screws at the bottom of the deep compartiment and 1 screw at the front on each side. To get to those screws you need to remove the front small money holder first.

Yo buddy, thanks for your expertize.
I know how to remove complete centre console, screws are in the bottom compartment.
Front cover that opens and closes does it have screws or plastic tabs you have to bend up to reliese from it's hinges?
