Console Removal - Premium GT
 

Trying to completely detach the console so I can remove it from the car for an upcoming audio install.

Removal of the Trunk/Flasher connector toward the front left - no problem.

Since it is premium - there are also two connectors for the cup-holder/ambient lights, one green and one gray.

Green one - no problem. Depress latch and car side unplugs.

Gray one - for the the life of me, I could figure out how to disconnect, so I could completely detach the console. Hard to see in the pic but this one also has two white plastic "friction" attachments that hold the entire connector assembly to the underside of the console. Perhaps the heat was shutting down my brain!

Any suggestions?

I think I've ran into connectors like this before, judging by the pic. They can be a pain in the you know what. If you can get a screw driver in there with decent leverage, push down and up...maybe pull a little too on the part that moves, it should pop out...
