SL/R230: Assisting the pump while closing the top question
You can glue it up later or just leave it - the console is plenty strong with it cut either sided.
Once cut, wiggle it up and out gently then slip off the retaining clip that holds the selector rod. Replace the clip with the new updated design upon reassembly.
Finally got the shifter out. May have been easier from under the car lol. This is where I’m at. I’m assuming I need to drill out the one rivet
