Center armrest phone connection removal.?

Post by Nine468 » Tue Feb 04, 2014 5:53 pm

I folks.
How easy is it to remove the phone preparation in the center armrest area. On a E70 08 plate.
I use the storage cubby underneath the phone thingy quite a lot , but don't have a phone installed as its done via Bluetooth, and im finding the phone prep is getting in the way..

I just did mine the other day its not hard to do ! But you need to be carefull .Just undo from the back of cubby box there is two torx screws at the back of phone holder and then ,Just take out black gromits on phone holder and undo four torx bits and then you can get at wire and board ,I then took it to bits and was left with a very small wireing loom tape "t that up and put that in the hole at back of cubby box and used the part of the phone holder to cover up hole in cubby box ! I will get a photo over the weekend to show you ..
