im trying to remove that area from the center console where the cigarette lighter, power outlet, esp and hazard light switch is at....to add another switch how do i remove it???

 

Remove the top part of the dash (above the radio) and then the panel on the bottom in front of the shifter, ( has a mesh pocket or a plane piece of plastic) and then just pop it out. It has clips holding it in but you just need to pull it off, you'll see where they are held and just pull near them.

 

This might help

After you pop the top and lower dash panel, there's 4 screws you'll have to remove.

 

can you add another switch? I was thinking those switches were on a circuit board. But if you get it done could ya post some pics please. I would like to know how to add the switches
