He should have said that. I guessed based on the picture the dime was the problem. So if it inside the console below that hole and he wants easy I would suggest a hand help dead-blow hammer. It will open that plastic up no problem :cwl:

Console is removable, there's around 7 bolts holding it all in place.

2 bolts just under the USB ports, 1 near the ds footwell. 2 in the center near the bottom and 2 more on the bottom near the rear of the console.

Your first picture reminds me of ‘Johnny 5’. 😆

the center console latch has the hole. is there an easy way to empty it out? i added a pic where i stuck a dime right in front of the hole.
if you need to know why, i have a "friend" that knew that the rattling would annoy me.

With friends like that you don’t… well you know the rest.

Sounds exactly like something your typical cat would do. "Hey, if I do this one thing, my human will get all agitated and it'll be fun to watch.".

THANK YOU Toddman you rock!
i didnt have to unplug any wires. i just had to loosen it and lift it a little and the dimes started falling to the floor (i didnt count how much money i made off this). i guess at that point i could have used a shopvac.

anyway problem solved... alls well that ends well.

No problem, and if it was me that buddy would receive a swift kick to the balls the next time we hung out. If it hasn't been done already.
