Help! Need to remove front dash trim
I have a W463 350 BlueTec and it's developing some noise from center console area.
FYI, it had squeaky noise and rattle from the area where the black ash trim meets this new navi screen(BTW, what an ugly design) and they initially disappeared after dealer put in some felt tape behind the trim. But now some sort of sticky noise is coming fron same spot. So this time, I wanna take care of it. If any one knows how to remove the trim or has a copy of instruction from WIS, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Did you have luck with this? I am also struggling with an annoying rattle in the dash, somewhere near the glove box. I've felted the glovebox lock & adjusted the door nice and tight, but it sounds like something is behind it. I heard something about a front airbag surround, but have no idea how to get to it.
Also, I tried to remove the center console bit by (from ashtray to the rear cup holder) but was having trouble getting the rear to disconnect. I think I need to remove the rear vents to pull the whole unit up, but dont know how.
Any advice is appreciated.
