Default Overhead Console Removal

Hey Lads,

On the convertible, does this overhead console simply pull down to remove it?
Saw one on ebay and it looks like it just has a couple of metal clips holding it in place?

I need to do some refurb on the metal grille that lives in it.

Cheers
Bernie

YES - but be careful with the metal clips. They have a bite like a rabid dog.

They are a spring clip but the 'teeth' on each side which grip the console are very sharp.
