Lower Dashboard Removal?

Maccer
in BMW 3 Series Forum

Featured Replies

Hi everyone. I wonder if anyone knows how to remove the upper centre console/lower dash section on an E92?

I just bought a 320D and now want to run a hidden power supply cable to my sat nav. which is mounted on top of the dash.

I intend soldering the wires to pick up power from the rear of the cigar lighter, as that is a switched live. Then to feed the wire up behind the dash and come out through the vent in the centre on top of the dash. I hate the long trailing wire and power plug etc. getting in the way and general looking unsightly! Any help with removing the ashtray and radio etc would be appreciated.

thanks
