Default Overhead console Install?

Hi

I took out the overhead light/garage switch to redo the headliner, came out easy enough but can't figure out how to clip it back in ?

Thanks in Advance

I don't understand why the overhead console cannot be installed.
The front slides forward at a slight angle and the rear is held in place by the plastic fastener turned a quarter turn.

Did you drop the plastic fastener????? Did it fall into the sun glass holder area?????

HI Bob

I did get it in. I have to say it seems odd how you slide it up on an angle and it holds. It look like those clips went in the plastic loops in the back of the console. But its in!!

Thanks
Joe
