DS5 Hybrid4 - How to remove center screen?

Post by Crystalyne »

Hey all,

Am looking over the next week or so to fit an Android Auto middleman box to my DS5 while retaining the factory SMEG (I believe in my case, an IV2 unit), with this unit:

However, to do so I'll need to take the center console apart, as seen in this video:

BUT - My DS5 is different to the one shown in the video, especially as the gear knob doesn't use a boot and sits flush to the center console (https://photos.app.goo.gl/hk3qgHj6429Xn3V87)

So, 2 questions:
1. What is the official way to remove the Hybrid4 Gear knob?
2. What is the official way to remove the factory head unit? (and refit, although i'd assume this is the reverse of removal)


Thanks!
