Center Console

Covered console. I just bought some vinyl and went to it. You have to remove the panel UNDERNEATH by removing all the screws. Then you'll have easy access for recovering. If your console padding is still moderately good, you can give the top a shave. My Dad had previously cut off the thrashed top half of the console lid with a bandsaw, for example, then painted it with a flat black several times, and this gave it a good surface for putting on the new vinyl.

If your console padding is considerably worn, like down to the plastic, you can chose to rip all the foam off the center console and start from scratch. To do this, remove the lid, remove all the screws from the bottom of the lid, and remove the inside panel. Then, use a razor blade to trace just outside the area of the foam that is FUSED into the plastic. Them remove the foam and recover as you wish.
