Question Center Console Question

Can anyone tell me how the 2 teardrop shaped trim pieces on the side of the console just under the shifter are atached?

Can you get them off without removing the console?

Thanks!

I recently removed my center console, upper console, & all the trim so I could paint my center console. It's quite easy. The whole interior is like a Lego. They're clipped on, all you have to do is pull them off, but be careful not to break the tabs. This is the result of Porsche taking manufacturing advice from Toyota. A Lego interior, lol.

Malakas is infamous around these parts
It take a little bit of force - but one swift pull, and they should all just "pop" out. The piece behind the console lid will come out with the console I believe...
