I'm in the process of re-assembling my middle consle and center dash after rerunning some wires. I'm having some issues getting the center dash trim/radio bezel trim pack in place. I believe I need to get the 12V outlets and cigg lighter assemblies out of the way. Do they just pop out!? I don't want to put too much force into and end up cracking the trim piece. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks ya'll

if you didn't take them out when you removed it, you shouldn't have to take them out to put it back. is the center console around the shifter still loose and pulled back? that should give you plenty of room to reinstall the center dash/controls surround. i've had mine off many times and i've never taken out the cig lighters, just disconnected the wires from the back.

It was a hell of a tight squeze getting it out ... Ended up being able to wrestle back in to place but the rear of the 12V connectors and the cigg had to be beaten in to submission lol!
Now if I can get my sad sorry ass on the ball and get my gas door installed I'll be set installing the holiday addition of truck goodies ...

if your gas door is taped on, that might be why it won't spin for you. mine already had a chrome door on it when i bought it, which may be why the whole filler bucket came out so easily.
