Removing rear center console in coupe/convertible?

Does anyone know what's required to remove the center storage unit between the rear seats? I have a replacement trim piece I need to pop in (this is for a 2019 cab)

mine is a 2017 (might be slightly different). remove cd changer trim bezel, remove cup holder and mat (2x screws under mat area), remove rear air vent (pulls out) and electrical connector, remove electrical connectors for console leds, remove 2x screw at rear of console. I think that is it. I watch w222 videos and it was all the same except for the 2 screw at the back of the console.

not sure about any battery, but i did manage to remove the piece - i just popped it off with a trim removal tool, I think the vent piece had to come off first then take off the other piece
