I would really like to remove the interior deep well liner of the center console to install a holster, directly to the liner. The idea being to bolt through the liner and put a nut on the back side. The center well liner has 4 screws and once removed the well liner will not budge. Must need a tool or there is a clip holding it in place. I have searched and searched for an answer, to no avail. Can anyone help, I don't want to break it. 2012 Ram 1500 Laramie

I am also trying to get the center console out. I am trying to install a compressor for airbags and I thought this would be a good spot for the compressor. Anyone know how to get the console out after the four screws are out?

I still haven't solved the issue. And no response from the forum at this point. Please keep me posted if you have any results. Thanks

You'll have to search for it, but one of the guys on this forum put a console into an express. Ought to be the reverse engineering magic key your looking for. Like I said, you will have to play with the search function for a while.

if you want to remove the center console you have to remove the chrome ring first just be careful bacause i've seen a few guys break theirs. after that remove the rubber piece closest to the dash on the console and there it 2 screws under it that need to be removed then just pull up and it should come off

Thank you for taking the time to reply. My dilemma is not to remove the entire console but simply trying to remove the liner in the deep well of the center console. The well liner has four visible screws. When removed the well liner does not budge. Thanks for any additional help.
