My Ride: 2008 535i LCI with sports/premium package, Sports trans with paddle shifters, CF emblems, JB4 Software, Dinan Exhaust, Navigation, M5Tech body kit, Carbon wrap interrior trim and CIC Controller.
I searched and was not able to find any specifics in removing the center console's rear trim panel that houses the two power adaptors. The part number/drawing number is 7141071. I did stumble across a procedure within the rear seat heat DIY that helps, but need to know if LCI is the same. I tried to remove it per these instructions and I am afraid that I am going to break it! From what I can tell there are two lower clips so I am assuming by just pulling outward they should release. I can't seem to find a way to depress them so they will release. Any help would be much appreciated.

Keep in mind that there used to be photos in the first post that didn't survive the years and/or board software upgrades. Pay particular attention to post number 34 (click here) to see instructions from BMW...
