To remove the entire console:
Remove wood trim as described (pull up on it from the rear to unclip it), then raise it up over the shifter and disconnect the electrical plugs. Way up in front of the console where it meets the dash are 2 black philips screws, remove them. Behind the shifter are 2 goldish colored phillips screws that go through the console material iteslf (through what I'd describe as a "cross bar"), remove those 2 screws too. (This is the hard part remove all the junk from the storage area in the console (SEE!), and remove this little patch of carpet in the bottom of this area, you'll see 2 more screws, remove those. It's good to go then, but usually I set the parking brake and pull the shifter back into drive, it comes out a bit easier then with the shifter towards the back.
To reinstall, one bit of advice is the panel on the "way back" of the console can be pushed out when the console is out (reach hand up into the console and push out at the top), if you do this, the rear AC vent is a bit easier to get into place, then it's easy to figure out how to put that panel back into place. Also note that when removing and reinstalling the console that there are guides on the very front of the console where it meets the dash, so pull straight up to remove the console (on the front) and make sure you reengage these when reinstalling, makes for a very nice close gap where the console meets the dash.
