somebody know a trick that i do not?i took out center console piece(parking brake piece), then took out front center piece(shifter to stereo). It is a vtec model by the way(5 spd.).
Problem: now the parking brake piece will not go back in. it looks to be 1/2" too long. i have taken everything back out 5 times, tried to force it, tried to push the rear piece(with lock in center of it) back. nothing works. very pissed. very angry.
please help. thanks. dont tell me: just gut it. interior is mint.

 

is the shifter-stereo peice still out? try pulling up the e-brake then sliding the peice back in. shouldn't be too hard.

 

sorry, pain i tell ya. gotta put it togather the same way it came off. may i suggest the bottom piece first

 

you have to put frnt(stereo ) in first. somebody pull some witch **** and fix this.

 

I have a 93 SI and had the same problem. The stereo piece tends to get stuck and doesnt go on all the way and that makes the center consol piece not go back on. Just try to ease it back on, take your time and inch your way from the back to the front of the peice.

 

sell it to me i need it

 

anybody else?
thanks so far.

Nope, the stereo shifter console piece goes in last. Put in the center console piece first, then put in the shifte piece

 

ill try it that way but that is not how i took it out, does not seem like it will go on that way, and helms says stereo piece first.

 

I've taken mine out plenty of times and thats how I've always done it. Give it a whirl, hopefully it'll work for ya

 

ill give it a try tommorroww. if anybody else knows any tricks, please advise. thanks everyone.

 

you put the front part in first, ebrake up hook the back section and hook it under the front section and the bam your done

 

tried it every way . took everything out, looked at it again. the back piece is 1/2" too long. what the f!@#@!. it was flush when i took it out.

 

anybody know how to move the dash back(toward windshield) 1/2"? the rear console(behind the seats with lock) is not going back any further.

really really angry.!@#$%^!@#$%^&@#$%^

 

pull then ebrake all the way up thne put the back peice in then with the brake still up slide the radio bezel under the e-brake then strech out he side of it so it slips over the side of the lower dash and vola! i' ve remove every nut and bolt of almost and 92-95 civic delsol
