If you have rear aircon the contol panel needs to come out too:
Lever the wood trim off
Remove the 6-8 little screws
Unplug the controllers
Unfasten the small wire loom that is clipped to the steel bracket that runs across the opening
The rear console screws for this varient are under the foot exhaust grilles as opposed to the rear pax face vents, pop the grille off each side and you'll see the torx bolts
