Ive tryed taking the drink holder out like I had to do with my 97 liberty but it didn't work the drink holder didn't come out after taking the 2 screws out is there any secret screws that are hard to spot? Any advice would be awsome wana try get it out sarvo

Pull the ash tray out and pull it out from buttom then work your way up carefully might be tight so yea.

Easiest way is to pull the gearstick surround up (the plastic going around the shifter - carbon fibre looking stuff in the pic above) and rotate it 90 degrees.

This will make space for the centre dash surround (in red above) to come out. You just have to pull it firmly - it's got quiet a few clips holding it in. Be firm but don't twist etc. I don't recall there being any screws on the surround.

PS: You don't need to touch the cup holder to get the head unit out.
