1. Remove ashtray
2. Remove two screws retaining ashtray track assy in. They are under the removable portion of the ashtray
3. Remove small change tray
4. Push wood cover forward, then lifting up GENTLEY on the front pull the whole thing up and out.
All the wiring will be attached just unplug the switches making note of their position and pop the switch out.

Thanks Breckman99 !

I'm not getting any current at the connection to the mirror so I will be checking the mirror switch, I also need to rebuild my passenger mirror mechanism as some of the plastic teeth on the adjustment arms are stripped.

If it is not the fuse 90% of the time it is that switch. Just order a new one as they get alot of junk spilled onto them due to the location.

I've ordered a new switch as I suspect it has a problem, in addition, when the switch went out someone manually tried to adjust the mirror and broke the gear mechanisms in the mirror. I have not been able to find rebuild parts for the passenger mirror and a new one is $$$$. I'm looking at junk yards for a good one.
