Easty Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 After the Bluetooth holder thing really started bugging me I decided to take it out, expecting to have to take out the centre console but iv just done it in 5mins!!! If I would of known it was this easy I'd of done it ages ago. . So just a little runt though for everyone :-) This is what you have to start with. . Pull the little cover back to show little screw, when you remove this screw you'll be about to move the unit around. Then there is a blanking plate underneath the unit also pull this to remove it Pull out the wires to show the connector blocks (mine were covered in foam) Remove the foam and disconnect the unit. . . I just tucked the other connector blocks back into the space underneath. Then the good bit, get the floor plate and pull it up, mine was just held down with sticky pads but did need a half decent tug. . . There will be another hole in the main floor of the compartment take blanking that you first removed fun under the holder and it will fit in this hole too. . . You then have finished with a bigger and more useful compartment to use. . This is what you should be left with Please let me know if you found this little guide useful :-) Thanks everyone 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoogyRev Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Very nice So what you gonna put in your bigger cavity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pnthrblkzs Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Good work, i didn't think aboutdoing a guide when i did mine. I went a step further and removed the bluetooth cradle off the floor as seen in your pic. i ran my usb lead into the cubby for my stereo, may move this into my non sat nav cubby though and mount an iphone holder of some sort that can rotate horizontally to make it easier for sat nav on my phone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyboy Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Just to add, I posted on this a while ago, if you still want to use the unit but don't want it in the cubby then it will fit in the space below the bottom floor and still work. Gives you the space you need in the centre console and still gives you a working hands free system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KUGT4 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 anybody know if the fairlady centre consoles inside are flat ie no bluetooth plug would make a great replacement... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I knew this thing was easy to remove Easty but just hadn't got around to it. Now I know what I'm going to be doing tomorrow afternoon. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fervidia Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) This helps a bunch, and leaves the car looking nice and tidy; I'd seen some examples when looking to buy where the center cubby was left in a terrible state post-adapter. Thumbs up to you! Edited March 29, 2018 by Fervidia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shunter8 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Holy thread revival Batman! But had to say thanks to this little write up I’ve just removed this from my car and it’s amazing how just that little bit of extra depth makes all the difference to the size and usability of the cubby hole.
